2 Men Shot Tuesday Night On Aurora’s West Side: Police

AURORA, IL — Two men were injured Tuesday night in a shooting that Aurora police believe arose from an earlier argument.

A man was shot around 9:30 p.m. Tuesday in the 800 block of Oliver Avenue, according to Paris Lewbel, a spokesperson for the Aurora Police Department. The man was taken to a local hospital to receive treatment for injuries that were not life-threatening, Lewbel said.

A second man sought treatment at the hospital around 1 a.m. Wednesday for a gunshot wound to his leg Wednesday, Lewbel said. Police believe he was shot during the same incident in the 800 block of Oliver Avenue.

Aurora police "do not believe this was a random act," Lewbel said Wednesday afternoon.
