Police said their initial investigation indicates that the two men were arguing but it was not immediately clear what the dispute was about.

Police said one man was an ex-boyfriend and another man is a current boyfriend to an unidentified woman.

At some point during the argument, one of the men pulled out a gun and shot the victim, according to authorities.

The victim's girlfriend called police but took the victim to a second location before police arrived and transported the wounded man to the hospital, officials said.

Police said the shooter remained on the scene and was cooperating with investigators.

"This is very early on in the investigation," a police spokeswoman said. "We have a lot of work to do."
