Chief Milton Moore is on the scene, along with the NET team assisting law enforcement efforts.

Several others are being detained and searched in relation to the incident. Police ended up arresting three other individuals from a crowd of onlookers for outstanding warrants.

A South Street resident, who wishes to remain anonymous, stated to Vicksburg Daily News that the problems on South Street are being created by outsiders.  The family has lived in the same house for 50 years. Although they are glad to see today’s efforts, they want resolutions and answers including answers to the unsolved murder which occurred across the street from the scene.
