According to JSO, detectives interviewed multiple other individuals at the scene who told them the situation started at the 1700 block of W. Edgewood Avenue when an unknown individual in a white car began to shoot at them.

Officers then made contact with the victims at the Walgreens, but the suspect fled the scene.

News4Jax spoke with a clerk at the Walgreens who said staff didn’t hear the gunfire, but noticed the flashing lights when police arrived.

Detectives have not determined a motive, but anyone with further information is asked to contact the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office at 904-630-0500 or CrimeStoppers at 1-866-845-TIPS to remain anonymous.
