One man is in hospital after being shot in Chomedey Friday morning.

The event happened around 4:30 a.m. Friday when someone shot at a car heading south on 80th Ave.

The driver went into reverse to try to get away but smashed into a parked Volkswagen.

The driver and his passenger then got out and ran to a nearby house to ask for help, and were then taken to hospital.

It turns out the driver was shot in the shoulder, while the passenger escaped injury.

Police say the shooter was on foot, and are examining surveillance video from the area to determine how he left the scene.

80th Ave. will be closed between Curé Labelle and Levesque until about noon while police investigate.
