A family friend tells Action News Jax these two young men were shot in the head early this morning.
Police say the first shooting happened at 4:13 a.m., off Bronson Street.
That’s where family friends say Zach Nelson was shot.
That’s where neighbors say a man named KJ was shot.
Then more than an hour later, just around the corner from the first shooting, police got a call of a second shooting, on North 23rd Street.
Family friend Antwaun Dallas says he mentored both of the young men who were shot.
“Just to wake up to that phone call it isn’t a good feeling,” said Dallas.
Police say the crime spree didn’t stop there, after the second shooting, they say a man named Julius Bunch carjacked a woman at North 16th and Eagle streets.
Police say Bunch took off and crashed at a McDonald's on Reid Street, but then kept driving west towards Interlachen.
That’s where the Putnam County Sheriffs Office used a device to puncture the tires, and arrest Bunch.
Bunch is also the primary person of interest in the two shootings.
Police say both men shot are in critical condition.
