Shooting is city's first homicide of the year: Man, 23, gunned down near Barton, Sherman

It took just over 4½ hours for Hamilton to see its first homicide of 2014. 

Police say a 23-year-old man was shot in the head early Wednesday morning and was pronounced dead at Hamilton General Hospital shortly after. They believe he'd been attending a house party on Sherman Avenue North just prior to the shooting. 
 
Although police did not release a specific address, emergency crews were initially called to 169 Sherman Ave. N., just north of Barton Street, at 4:39 a.m. 

Hamilton Paramedic Services confirmed Wednesday morning that a man was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries from that scene.
