NATCHEZ — Adams County Sheriff’s Office has released the identity of two individuals involved in a shooting incident this afternoon on Myrtle Drive.

Emanual Jones, 24, was reportedly shooting at Jeromy Stewart over a dispute that happened earlier today, Adams County Sheriff Travis Patten said.

There were at least two other people who came to the residence with Jones, one of whom had been brought to the sheriff’s office for questioning. However, Jones is the only one being charged at this time, Patten said Thursday.

“So far, everyone was cooperative except for one,” Patten said, adding there is a possibility that additional arrests and charges are forthcoming pending further investigation of this case.

“The shooter is in custody and we have recovered the weapon used in this incident,” Patten said. “Three people came back to the residence, but there was only one shooter who fired multiple rounds.”

Around 12:02 p.m., Adams County E911 Dispatch received a call stating that Jones was shooting at Stewart on Myrtle Drive in Adams County. Upon deputies’ arrival on the scene, Jones had already fled.

Deputies were able to make contact with the victim, Stewart, who was visibly shaken after being shot at multiple times while at his own home.

During the course of the investigation, it was determined that Jones and Stewart had a verbal altercation over money earlier that day in front of the Jones’s home, also on Myrtle Drive.

After the verbal altercation, Stewart returned to his home. Moments later, Jones showed up at the Stewart’s house accompanied by two other persons of interest and engaged in a physical altercation with Stewart.

After the two were separated, words continued to be passed between them.

Jones eventually drew a firearm from his waistline and fired multiple shots at Stewart, who was unarmed, as Stewart ran from the gunfire.

Investigators collected evidence on the scene and later arrested Jones when Jones turned himself over to authorities at the Adams County Sheriff’s Office. He was then charged with aggravated assault and shooting into a dwelling.

Stewart was not charged relative to this case but was arrested when it was discovered that he had a warrant out of Concordia Parish for burglary of a business.

“This is an ongoing active investigation to which more interviews will need to be conducted in order to determine the other persons of interest’s roles in this incident,” Patten said. “If anyone has more information to share, they can call Crime Stoppers at 1-888-442-4001 or call the Adams County Sheriff’s Office at 601-442-2752.”
