BURLINGTON, MASS. (WHDH) - Authorities have launched an investigation after one person was injured in a shooting at a park in Burlington early Saturday morning, officials said.

Officers responding to a report of a shooting at Regan Park on Sumpter Road around 2 a.m. found one person suffering from non-life-threatening injuries, according to Burlington Police Chief Michael Kent.

The Burlington Police Department has since increased patrols in the area with uniformed and plainclothes officers out of an abundance of caution.

No arrests have been made in connection with the incident.
