A shootout in the parking lot of a Pine Hills strip mall injured two teens, Wednesday afternoon. The two teenagers were shot outside the Winn-Dixie shopping plaza on Pine Hills and Silver Star roads.
It was the third time deputies had been called out to the mall, Wednesday. An 18- and a 14-year-old were hit. Both are in serious condition. Authorities said that 14-year-old may have been an innocent bystander.
Investigators think a bullet may have traveled all the way across the parking lot and hit the boy as he stood with his father at a tire shop.
Now, deputies are trying to figure out who's responsible. Moments after the shooting, deputies moved in with guns drawn, detaining four young men who may have been involved.
"It just sounded crazy, like a movie, gunshots just going back and forth, a whole lot of 'em," said an eyewitness identified only as Tasha.
The eyewitnesses said they were getting their car washed at the Winn-Dixie parking lot when a large fight got out of hand and two people started shooting, hitting the two teenagers.
"A little boy went running across the street and I ran over and seen the blood coming out his neck. I took a shirt and put it on his neck," Tasha said. "I was trying to get away, because I didn't want to get hit. I thought I was going to get hit."
With all the people, deputies said there was a lot of chaos at the scene. They have three young men detained and were hoping eyewitnesses could help them identify who was involved.
