On Friday around 11:30 p.m., deputies and troopers responded to the Dutcher Mobile Home Park, located off Salem Street in Port Ewen, for a 911 call about a disturbance.

The initial investigation revealed three armed masked men approached and adult and a young person outside their home and allegedly demanded undisclosed property. A brief struggle ensued and the adult was shot in the shoulder, police say.

The unnamed adult suffered a non-life threatening gunshot wound to their shoulder. The victim was transported to Mid-Hudson Regional Medical Center in Poughkeepsie, treated and later released.
