Santa Barbara police swarmed into a Westside neighborhood Monday night after a man was found seriously injured, the victim of a shooting.

Police and other emergency personnel were dispatched at about 7:30 p.m. after receiving 9-1-1 reports of a violent incident in the 500 block of West Anapamu Street, between San Pascual Street and the Union Pacific railroad tracks.

The victim, who suffered a bloody wound to his lower body, was found on the 1200 block of San Pascual Street by officers who reportedly followed a trail of blood.

“It appears to be a single gunshot wound,” Lt. Kasi Corbett told Noozhawk Monday night.

The victim was treated at the scene by Santa Barbara firefighters and paramedics, then taken by American Medical Response ambulance to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital.

The man suffered a gunshot wound to his lower extremity, Sgt. Ethan Ragsdale said on Tuesday, and was listed in critical condition at the hospital.

As of 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, there reportedly were no suspects in custody in the shooting.

“Based on the preliminary investigation, this shooting appears to be an isolated incident and currently there is no threat to the public,” Ragsdale said.

Streets were blocked off in the neighborhood near the Westside Boys & Girls Club and Bohnett Park Monday night while police investigated the incident.
