JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The 18-year-old man fatally shot Sunday in the city's Woodstock neighborhood early Sunday morning has been identified as Tradarius Rashaud Alexander.
The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office responding to Detroit Street near Commonwealth Avenue about 6:20 a.m. found the man dead in the middle of the street. Police said he suffered at least one gunshot wound.
Alexander lived on Hartridge Street, less than a half mile from where he was found dead. When releasing his name on Tuesday, police only said this continues to be an active investigation.
