Akron Police are investigating a shooting that left one man dead and another injured Wednesday night along Noah Avenue. 

About 11:30 p.m. Wednesday police responded to the 700 block of Noah on multiple calls about shots fired. There, they found two men inside a car that had crashed into the front porch of a home, both of whom had been shot.

According to the report, the 20-year-old victim was outside of a nearby home when another car drove by and several people from inside the car opened fire.

He was pronounced dead on the scene while another man, a 24-year-old, was shot, suffering non-life-threatening injuries.
