New Haven Man Shot in Penis

The 31-year-old man is in serious, but stable condition.

New Haven emergency officials responded to a medical call early Thursday morning after a 31-year-old man was shot in the penis.

Police said Maurice Farrington’s mother called emergency crews at 12:48 a.m. after hearing dogs barking and what she thought sounded like a gunshot.

She looked through the window blinds, but saw nothing, police said. Then, she heard her son scream, ran to his room and saw him bleeding, so she called 911.

Firefighters responded to the medical call and EMTs attended to Farrington, police said.

He was rushed to surgery at Yale-New Haven Hospital. Doctors said Farrington’s condition is serious, but he is in stable condition.

Detectives are investigating this case.

Anyone with information is asked to call 203-946-6304 or the Tips Hotline, at 203-946-6296.
