One man was hospitalized after being shot by another man near the intersection of N. 6 1/2 Street and Third Avenue this morning in Terre Haute.

The extent of the victim's injuries are unknown at this time; however, police say he was able to walk a short distance to the area of the ISU/IU Landsbaum Center for Health Education around 9 a.m., while the suspect fled the scene in an unknown direction of travel, according to a university press release.

Because of the close proximity of the incident to campus, ISU Police issued an alert to students.

ISU Police described the suspect as a black male, last seen wearing a red shirt.  The suspect vehicle is a green Ford F-150 pickup truck.  

​The Terre Haute Police Department is investigating the report of the shooting. Investigators remained at the scene for several hours.
