UPDATE: Miguel Martinez was shot by Efrain Rivera. Martinez was rushed to Bridgeport Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Police also say he shot Martinez’s brother, Jose Martinez, in the shoulder. Witness say this stems from an earlier argument around 8:30pm. Rivera is being held on $1 million bond.

 

1:35am–#Bridgeport CT–Police are investigating a shooting in the 600 block of Ogden Street near Hallett Street.  One person was shot in the shoulder, another much more serious, radio reports say he was shot twice and in trauma but no word on where he was shot.  I can usually piece together an initial report from what witnesses tell me but this one has conflicting reports.  Detectives were just arriving when I left the scene, as soon as I get official word from police I will let you know.  That’s part of the problem of being the first on the scene but I know you want to know right away.  And hey, no expensive cable subscriptions, the breaking news as it is breaking delivered to your phone!
