CAMBRIDGE ­– The early-morning quiet of this town was disturbed Monday, when five men were shot, one fatally.

At 12:25 a.m. Cambridge police responded to the 1000 block of Jimson Road in reference to a ShotSpotter alert of multiple rounds of gunfire. Officers arrived, secured the scene and learned that a 25-year-old, a 19-year-old, and an 18-year-old man had been shot.

Two of the subjects were transported to the University of Maryland, Shock Trauma. The other subject is being treated locally.

At the time of a report from police around 9 a.m., it did not appear that any of the injuries were life-threatening. There were several vehicles and residences that had been damaged by the gunfire.

Then at 12:30 a.m., Cambridge police responded to the 400 block of Henry Street after receiving a 911 call of a subject shot. Officers located a man lying near the back steps of the home with several gunshot wounds.
