WATCH: Fox 4's Eric Lovelace speaks to neighbors:
According to the Lee County Sheriff’s Office, the incident occurred at approximately 3 a.m. in the 600 block of Jackson Avenue. One victim sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was transported for medical treatment.
A neighbor Fox 4 spoke to lives nearby. He told Fox 4 he's a retired veteran. He says the gunfire woke up up from his sleep, and brought him back to a familiar, scary place.
“Yeah, it woke me up and I had a little PTSD from the military, it did wake me up and scared the heck out of me," he said. "It’s like I was back getting fired at again."
Authorities later confirmed that a second, related scene was located in the 200 block of Joel Boulevard. Officials stated that both scenes are contained and that there is no ongoing threat to the public.
Detectives with the Violent Crimes Unit have taken over the investigation. Both locations remain active as investigators work to gather additional information related to the incident.
No further details have been released at this time.
