MASON CITY – Details are thin so far, but one person was shot and injured Tuesday evening in Mason City.

Sources at the scene near North Federal and 9th Street NW tell NIT that “neighbors said they heard arguing and yelling and a single shot followed by multiple shots.”

Another source told NIT that “gun shots … people are screaming … blocking off 9th and federal, south of Casey’s (gas station) blocked.”

One person was said to be hit by gunfire.

This is the same general area where a young man, Brandon Crawford, was shot and killed back in August of 2011.

Police are apparently investigating this incident, they say.

Police tell NIT this evening that officers responded to multiple reports of a disturbance and possible gunshots in the area of 9th Street NW and North Washington Avenue Tuesday night at 7:20 PM. When officers arrived they found an adult female had been injured by gunfire. The woman was taken to the hospital by fire medics.

Officers are still on the scene conducting the investigation.

Anyone with information about this incident should contact the Mason City Police Department at 641.421.3636.
