One person is dead, the other in the hospital, after two shootings in Crowley over the weekend. Those two shootings happened within a 2-block radius of each other. The first shooting happened Friday just after 4 o'clock at the intersection of Hutchinson and Jacobs Avenue. Police identified the victim as Greginald Jones of Crowley. The second shooting happened Sunday just before 8 o'clock. Police say unknown suspects approached a vehicle on foot and started firing . Two people were inside that vehicle. One person was shot in the arm and leg and is being treated at a Lafayette hospital for non-life threatening injuries.
Police say they believe that second shooting happened in retaliation of the first. The neighborhood is completely shaken up by these two shootings. Neighbors say they're afraid there may be another possible retaliation and say the neighborhood isn't safe. I sat down with a close friend of Greginald Jones who doesn't want his name or face on camera.
