Four dead, 12 injured in Mississippi shooting spree
Four people were killed and 12 others injured, four critically, in a mass shooting in Leland, Mississippi, on Friday night. The shooting occurred around midnight on the main street of the small town, about 120 miles northeast of Jackson. Four injured victims were airlifted to the hospital, while police launched a manhunt for suspects. Mayor John Lee stated that the shooting did not occur at Leland High School, which was hosting a homecoming event that day.
A separate shooting in Heidelberg, another Mississippi town, also occurred during homecoming weekend, killing two people. There is no indication the two shootings are connected.
