A HASTINGS resident was taken to Frankston Hospital after allegedly being shot in the arm by an air rifle, 6.30pm, Saturday 1 April.

The 34-year-old, who was reported to ambulance officers as being near the Wallaroo general store when the incident happened, later told police he recalled hearing a shot but could not remember where. X-rays at the hospital could find no pellet, just graze marks.

Anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.
