A 22-year-old man is in hospital after he was shot at least once Monday night in the Villeray-Saint-Michel-Parc-Extension borough.

Doctors say his life is in danger.

The man was discovered by police officers dispatched to the area in the evening after several 911 calls were made for reports of gunfire.

The man was found badly injured, lying on the ground in the entrance of a triplex on Iberville St. near Villeray St.

The victim is well known to police.
