JSO says a man who was with a woman got into an argument with another man, and the men began to shoot each other.
“We need to come up with different ways for people to resolve these issues instead of trying to kill each other and shoot each other,” said AJ Jordan, the outreach coordinator for the nonprofit MAD DADS Jacksonville Chapter.
