Police said they received the call about the shooting incident about 8:37 p.m.

The report stated shots were fired and a number of men were seen running away from the scene afterwards. Selman was later discovered with a head injury and he was transported to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH) by car for medical attention, but was later pronounced dead while at the QEH. (CA)
