According to Medic, one patient was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries. The shooting occurred at the intersection of East Trade Street and South Brevard Street. Police say the official call for service came in just after 3:30 p.m.

When officers arrived on scene, they found a male lying in a parking lot suffering from apparent gunshot wounds.

During a press conference, CMPD announced that they had recovered a weapon at the scene.

"It's just ridiculous, they should not have shot my brother, I don't understand," said a distraught woman who didn't want to be identified.

Cheif Kerr Putney and several of the Deputy Chiefs visited the crime scene.

At last report, the victim was in critical condition, but is expected to survive. Lavar Sprinkle is a friend of the victim and saw him before he was transported.

"I saw the dude laying down on the ground, one shot in the neck and I saw the dude that was doing the shooting running down toward this way," he said.

Police caught Smith a short distance away and recovered a gun; officers have not said what sparked the shooting, but say both men know each other.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 704-334-1600.
