NATCHEZ — Four teenage boys were injured in a shooting on Dumas Drive early Saturday morning.

Natchez Police Department Detective Jerry Ford said the boys were attacked shortly after midnight Saturday morning.

The teenagers were sitting in the cab of a truck on Dumas Drive, Ford said, when an unknown person opened fire on the vehicle.

Neighbors called the police to report the gunshots, and officers who responded to the scene found the teens, Ford said.

The victims included one 14 year old, who was injured by broken glass inside the truck, two 16 year olds, who were shot in the arm, and a 17 year old who was shot in the neck.

The 17 year old was airlifted to Baton Rouge, but Ford said he was responsive and is expected to recover.

The other three boys were treated at Merit Health Natchez. None of their injuries were reported as life threatening.

Ford said police do not yet know who shot the teenager nor do police have a motive for the shooting at the moment.

“Right now, we’re still early in the investigation phase,” Ford said. “We’re talking with different people in the area that supposedly were out there at the time so we can find out exactly what happened and who did this.”

Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 601-442-5000.

Crime Stoppers offers a reward of up to $1,000 for tips leading to the arrest and conviction of a suspect. Callers can remain anonymous.
