At the scene, officers discovered a 33-year-old man who had been shot in the arm and was bleeding heavily. Officers say they immediately applied a tourniquet when they got there to try and stop the bleeding. EMS workers took the man to a hospital.

Investigators say the man was going in and out of consciousness but did tell officers that someone in all dark clothing shot him. The latest we have from the police is that the man is in critical but stable condition.

Just before 2:00 p.m. on Saturday afternoon, officers from District 6 rushed to the scene of a shooting on the 800 block of Wall near North Broadway in the Baden neighborhood of north St. Louis.
