Three people were shot in Mattapan Saturday afternoon.

Boston Police officers responded to the first block of Hiawatha Street in Mattapan after the ShotSpotter system alerted them to the sounds of gunshots in the area.

Police say that they found three people suffering from gunshot wounds in the area: two men and one woman.

All three were taken to area hospitals for treatment. While the woman’s gunshot injuries were at first deemed life-threatening, a police spokesman said that her prognosis has since been downgraded to “serious.” Neither of the men’s injuries are deemed life threatening.

Police ask anyone who has any information on this shooting to contact detectives anonymously through the city’s CrimeStoppers program by calling 1-800-494-TIPS (8477), texting the word “TIP” to CRIME (27463), or by submitting information through the CrimeStopers website at https://police.boston.gov/crimestoppers/.
