Melbourne Police investigate a possible homicide after a shooting near Eddie Lee Taylor Park
Melbourne Police are investigating a shooting near Eddie Lee Taylor Park while still on the scene of another shooting on Camphor Way, less than a mile from the scene.
Two large crowds gathered at the park, one group to watch a youth football game, and another group was believed to have gathered for the funeral of Craig Dewberry Jr.
At approximately 7:24 p.m., gunshots were heard at the entrance/exit as the crowd in the area began to flee in multiple directions, according to Melbourne Police.
MPD later discovered two adult males who were shot; both were transported to the hospital.
One victim is in critical condition; the other was declared deceased.
Investigators have not released the names of the victims, as they're determining if both incidents are related.
