NEW HAVEN, CT — Authorities are investigating after a man was shot multiple times at the New Haven Union Station.

"At approximately 8:35 p.m., a report of shots fired at New Haven Union Station was received by MTAPD, which discovered a single male victim had been shot multiple times," said MTA Communications Director Tim Minton. "Preliminary investigation reveals that the victim and two other individuals were on a train when a dispute began that continued on the platform between tracks 12 and 14, where there was gunfire targeting the victim.

"Following the shooting, two suspected perpetrators fled the scene and the victim entered a nearby train," Minton said. "Responding medics transported the injured man to Yale New Haven Hospital in critical condition."

MTAPD is the lead investigative agency, joined on scene by Amtrak Police, New Haven PD and the Connecticut State Police. The investigation is active and ongoing, with no active threat to Metro-North riders or employees, officials said.
