JSO: 2 men shot in the legs in drive-by shooting in Moncrief area

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Violent Crimes Task Force is responding to the 1500 block of West 32nd Street in the Moncrief area.

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Violent Crimes Task Force investigating after two men were shot in their legs in a drive-by shooting in the 1500 block of West 32nd Street in the Moncrief area on Tuesday night.

The shooting happened just after 6 p.m. Police said the persons of interest are men who were driving a gold car.

JSO said it is too soon to tell if the shooting is gang-related, or if it is related to the Friday gang-related shooting of 22-month-old Aiden McClendon.

No shell casings were recovered, so police are working with a lack of evidence at the crime scene.

A man was arrested at the scene, but JSO said the arrest is not related to the shooting. The man was allegedly walking through the crime scene.
