Man shot on 25th Street

The RTD is reporting a shooting in the 1900 block of 25th Street:
[Richmond police Capt. Yvonne Crowder] said a friend of the victim drove him to Richmond Community Hospital […] Neither the victim nor the driver are cooperating with investigators, Crowder said.
The victim’s injuries appeared to be non-life-threatening.
@2 A maxim of the African American community is that you don’t cooperate with police… Argue the reasons if you will but whatever caused this individual to be shot in the first place things would be absolutely worse in his circle if it were reported he was cooperating…! And yes it’s a good thing this wasn’t just a random occurrence but someone being shot is never a “good thing”.
I honestly didn’t know 25th Street went that far.
So, what…he was cleaning his gun and accidentally shot himself in the back 5 times?
Case closed I guess. No victim no crime….?
