A man was injured in what he told police was a drive-by shooting Sunday morning in Pittsburgh’s North Side, officials said.

Authorities received a report of shots fired at Cedar Avenue and Pressley Street near Allegheny Center shortly after 3:10 a.m., Public Safety spokeswoman Cara Cruz said.

Police officers arrived to find a man with a gunshot wound to his buttocks, Cruz said.

Medics took him to the hospital, where he was in stable condition. Officials did not release his name.

The injured man told police that “a small silver car approached him and fired two to three shots at him,” Cruz said.

Officials did not provide further information.

Police continue to investigate.
