A man who was shot on New Year’s Eve went to Connecticut Children’s, a pediatric medical center in Hartford, to seek treatment and that led to a break lockdown of the emergency department.
Police said officers responded to the children’s hospital just before 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday after receiving a report that a gunshot victim had arrived to seek treatment.
The victim, a man in his 20s, was alert and conscious and he was uncooperative with the investigation, police said.
Officials from Connecticut Children's said the emergency department was locked down for a few minutes before it was lifted.
