A private security patrolling an apartment complex found the victim of a robbery and shooting according to metro police.
Just after midnight Monday a security officer said that he found the man in his 20s laying near the sidewalk in the 3600 block of Cambridge Street, near Twain Avenue, according to Metropolitan Police Lt. David Gordon.
Police say that they are now investigating the incident as a robbery and shooting at a central valley apartment complex.
The man told police he was walking on Cambridge when another man approached him and demanded his phone, Gordon said. He refused and the robber punched him, shot him in the leg and took his wallet.
At 12:30 p.m., Metropolitan Police officers could be seen walking through the Skyline Parc Apartments, 3675 Cambridge Street.
The man was taken to a hospital and is expected to survive.
