Police blocked off the areas around King Street East, Leinster, Crown and Pitt Street. There were about five police cars on scene.
Bill Lapp lives in the area and spoke with CHSJ news last night.
He says someone was on the street shot multiple times and he made it around the corner which is where he is lying right now.
Shelly McCready who lives in the neighbourhood says she heard gun shots and sirens.
She tells us the police are often in the area so it's not unusual to see their lights.
Police have yet to release any details but Pitt Street between King Street East and Leinster Street are still blocked off with yellow caution tape and two police cruisers on either end.
