Officers responding to the 000 Block of South 10th Street around 8:10 p.m. found a 20-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the foot, and an 18-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds to the torso, according to the Reading Police Department.

Both men were taken to Reading Hospital for treatment of their severe but non-life-threatening injuries, police said.

Investigators believe an unidentified suspect fired multiple rounds at a group of people in front of a South 10th Street home then fled north.

Police say the incident appears to be targeted at the home/group that was shot at and not a random incident.

The investigation is ongoing, and anyone with information relative to this incident is asked to call the Reading Police Department at 610-655-6116 or contact Crime Alert Berks at 877-373-9913.
