A 16-year-old is in the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries after he was found shot in Montreal's Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough Monday night.

Montreal police responded to an 11:50 p.m. 911 call about a teenage boy with a gunshot wound to his lower body.

They found him near the intersection of avenue Émile-Journault and rue Saint-Hubert, but SPVM spokesperson Raphaël Bergeron said investigators have not found anything at the scene, indicating that he was "probably" shot elsewhere.

The victim, who Bergeron said is known to police, is also not cooperating with the investigation.

There have been no arrests.
