NATCHEZ — Natchez police are investigating an early morning shooting that has left a Natchez man in critical but stable condition in a Jackson hospital.
Detective Jerry Ford said the police department received a call at 4 a.m. Saturday from a woman on North Rankin Street who said a man who had been shot was at her house asking for help.
Ford said McKinley Douglas Brady, 33, 15 Albert Road, was shot multiple times at the intersection of Beaumont and Bishop streets.
Ford said Brady reportedly had gotten a ride from a friend then passed out in the friend’s car. The friend dropped Brady off at an acquaintance’s house and asked the people at the house to take Brady home, Ford said.
Brady and two juveniles at the house, Ford said, got into an argument, and one of the juveniles pulled out a gun and shot Brady multiple times.
One of the suspects, Ford said, is in custody, but no charges have been filed.
The investigation is ongoing, Ford said, and charges should be filed soon.
Anyone with any information about the shooting should call NPD at 601-445-5565 or Crime Stoppers at 601-442-5000.
Crime Stoppers offers a reward up to $1,000 for the arrest and conviction of a suspect because of a tip. Callers can remain anonymous.
