Two people were hospitalized Tuesday night after a shooting in northwest Fort Worth that investigators believe may have been gang related.

Officers were first called to the 4900 block of Marineway Drive shortly before 11 p.m. and found one victim, a police spokesperson said.

Shortly after officers arrived at the first scene, another shooting call came in nearby in the 5700 block of Boat Club Road, where another person who had been shot showed up and called 911, police said.

Investigators believe the second gunshot victim is the suspect from the first shooting.

The victim found at the first location on Marineway Drive is being treated for non-life-threatening injuries and is in stable condition, police said.

The suspect is being treated for multiple gunshot wounds and is in critical condition.

The gang unit is investigating the case.
