HESPERIA, Calif. (VVNG.com) A man suffering from a gunshot wound outside a gas station on the 14500 block of Main Street Monday evening was airlifted.
Deputies from the Hesperia Sheriff’s Department and emergency personal from the San Bernardino County Fire Department responded to the 7-Eleven located on Main Street and Maple Avenue at about 6:29 pm, February 24, 2020.
Upon arrival, a man with a gunshot wound was located and transported by ambulance to a landing zone at Hesperia High School.
