The victim is described as an unidentified Hispanic male in his mid 20s, said Lt. Cheshire, an investigator with the Elizabethtown Police Department.
Lt. Cheshire said the department received the call at about 5:50 p.m. Saturday. He said there was an earlier call but there was some confusion in regards to the caller due to a language barrier. However, the caller located someone who could translate for them.
