A young man was sent to hospital after being shot outside the Donlands subway station early Sunday.

The incident occurred just after 2 a.m. on Sunday, with the gunfire ringing out right outside the doors to the subway station.

The victim, aged 18, was shot in the stomach. He was later rushed to hospital, where he was treated for the injury. He is expected to recover.

Police say that the investigation has been slowed by the teen's reluctance to give evidence about his assailant.
