Police in Stow are investigating a double-shooting that occurred around 6:30 P.M. inside a house on Osage Street. 

Detectives say Jason Hoy, 20, suffered a non life threatening gunshot wound in the lower part of his body.  He was taken to the hospital, where he was interviewed by police.  At about the same time, police got word that another person, Andrew Brown, 21, arrived at the hospital by private vehicle after being shot in the leg.  The victims say they were inside the house when three other men came inside and one of them stated shooting. 

Police say they found shell casings, some marijuana, scales and other drug paraphernalia.
