Washington police are investigating an incident in which a man was shot in the leg Tuesday night in the city’s West End.

Police Chief Dan Rush said officers were called to Washington Hospital at about 10:30 p.m. Michael Jackson, 24, told police he was shot on Broad Street near the Eighth Ward Playground.

According to Rush, it appeared to be a drive-by shooting.

Rush said detectives are following up “on a couple of leads,” but there are no suspects in the case.

Jackson has since been released from the hospital.
