They then saw a black male being put into a car.

Moynihan said officers were eventually called to the area of 54 Phoenix Terr., where they found the shooting victim.

He was suffering from a gunshot wound to his head.

The victim was unable to provide any information to the police before he was taken to Baystate Medical Center.
