A 32-year-old man was shot in the head in Lincoln's Everett Neighbourhood on Monday morning. The Lincoln Police Department received a report of the shooting at 11:07 a.m. near 14th and B streets. Officers arrived two minutes later and found the victim conscious and alert. He was taken to hospital with serious injuries to his head. LPD Assistant Chief Jason Stille said the bullet did not appear to have penetrated the skull.

Nearly ten minutes after the incident, a 38-year-old person matching the suspect's description was taken into custody two blocks away. Officers found a firearm in a storm drain near the suspect. The person is being treated as a person of interest at this stage. Police secured C Street between 12th and 13th streets and were applying for a search warrant to search a nearby apartment, from which Stille said blood appeared to lead.

Lincoln Public Schools placed schools in the neighbourhood into secure mode during the police response, with students and staff kept inside buildings with locked doors and monitored entrances.
