JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A double shooting in the Hyde Park area of Jacksonville’s Westside left one man dead and another with life-threatening injures early Thursday morning, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said.
According to JSO, two men were shot several times around 1:50 a.m. Thursday at a property on Lane Avenue. One man died at the scene. The other man is in the hospital with critical injuries.
Police were investigating two scenes: One in the parking lot of a bar, where shell casings were found, and the other in the parking lot of an apartment complex. Investigators said there is surveillance video that might help them piece together what happened.
JSO believes the people involved knew each other and are working to find out how and who might have been involved beyond the two men.
