The victim, reported as 22 year-old Burbank resident by police, was expected to survive.

Witnesses in the area reported as many as three shots being fired in the area of 1600 San Fernando Blvd. near East St.

Police found shell casings in that area where it appeared the shooting occurred before the victim fled before collapsing on Scott Road.

Police have no suspect information or vehicle information regarding the shooting. A search around the area did not turn up anything. Glendale police came in to supply manpower holding perimeter positions freeing Burbank officers to investigate.
