Baltimore police are trying to figure out what exactly happened in the 5200 block of Frankford Avenue Monday night into Tuesday morning. 

Around 11:36 p.m. officers on routine patrol say they heard several gunshots. When they got to the 5200 block of Frankford Ave they found a 24-year-old man that had been shot in the face. He was taken to the hospital and is reportedly stable. 

90 minutes later, officers were told there was a walk-in shooting victim at a hospital in the area. There they found a 32-year-old man with a gunshot wound to his body. Preliminary investigations show the 32-year-old was trying to buy marijuana in the 5200 block of Frankford Ave when he was robbed by several men. 

Police told WMAR-2 News they are not sure if the two men were together when they were shot.
