Officers were dispatched to a shooting call at the above address and found a parked vehicle with blood on the front of it. The vehicle’s owner remained on the scene and told officers the victim and suspect got into an argument that escalated when the suspect shot the victim multiple times. The suspect then fled the scene on foot. The victim, later identified as Mr. Jackson, was transported in a private vehicle to a hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
