Halifax Regional Police are investigating a shooting that happened just after midnight on Gottingen Street.

Officers in the area were flagged to the scene with a report of shots being fired around 12:30 a.m. Sunday, according to a media release.

Halifax police say officers found one man who had been shot, and learned of another victim who had already been taken to hospital. They added both victims have non-life-threatening injuries.

The incident, which occurred near police headquarters on the block between Cogswell and Falkland streets, is not believed to be random, police say.

Police say the suspects are believed to have left the scene in a black GMC SUV.
