After the shooting occurred on the street in front of the Majestic Plaza Apartments, police shut down the road as officers canvassed the area and knocked on doors.
"It's a shame because I spent a long day at work and I want to come home and settle in with my child," said Ashley Turner, who lives at the apartment complex. "Every time I look around there's something going on."
Police told News4Jax it was not known if the shooting was related to shots fired at a social worker at the same complex earlier Tuesday. According to the police, the woman was sitting in her car on 36th Street when three men in a white sedan drove by, pointed three guns at her and then fired shots into her car. She was not hit and no one was injured in the incident.
