WILMINGTON, Del. (WPVI) -- A man with a bullet wound to his back was found in the parking lot of the Penn Cinema Riverfront movie theater on South Madison Street at 11:30 p.m. Tuesday.

Wilmington Police believe the 20-year-old man was shot in a nearby neighborhood and collapsed in the movie theater parking lot.

The man was taken to Christiana Hospital in critical but stable condition.
