The Tallahassee Police Department says it's investigating a Wednesday night shooting that left one man injured.

Residents called to report a shooting in the 2000 block of Old St. Augustine Road just before 10 p.m., but when officers arrived there were no victims or suspects, just evidence that a shooting had occurred, according to a TPD news release.

"A short time later, an adult male arrived at a hospital with a non-life threatening gunshot wound to the arm," TPD said. "Preliminary findings indicate a man attempted to rob the victim just before the shooting occurred."

As of Thursday afternoon, no suspects or arrests have been made, and the investigation is active and ongoing. TPD is asking anyone with information to call them at 850-891-4200 or Crime Solvers at 850-574-TIPS.

The incident comes less than two weeks after two back-to-back fatal shootings on Dec. 18.

This marks the 87th shooting in the capital city and county. According to a Tallahassee Democrat , 72 people have been injured, and 24 people have died from a serious shooting.
