Police said a woman called 911 after she heard a man yell that he had been shot.
The man was shot by a suspect, who is between 25-35 years old, at the location on Gus Eckert and was driven to University Hospital, police said.
He told officers that he went to visit someone at the location and the suspect showed up, according to SAPD.
