Bakersfield Police are investigating a reported shooting at a medical office in East Bakersfield, investigators said Tuesday.

Crews were called to the area of Goodman Street -- near Bernard and Alta Vista -- just before 6 p.m near the offices of Dr. Edwin Y. Zong.

A BPD lieutenant said officers were reporting that a doctor at a medical facility had been attacked by a patient; the doctor may have fired a gun in self-defense, and the patient may have been seriously injured.
