A spokesperson for the department says the shooting happened in front of Sneaker House around 5:30 P.M.

A suspect is not in custody at this time; police say they are looking for the person or persons responsible.

The person who was killed has not yet been identified by police, but a relative tells KATC that the victims were going to the shoe store to buy shoes for their grandmother's funeral on Saturday.
