2 injured in 2 shootings in Eunice

Two shootings resulted in two people being injured on Monday, in locations that are “constants for gun battles,” according to Eunice Police Chief Randy Fontenot.
“The suspects in both shootings are constants,” said Fontenot. “They are the common denominators in the majority of our shootings.
“In these cases, the line between victim and suspect has been blurred and nearly erased. The only true victims are the innocent people who are caught in the line of fire of these Godless, senseless fools,” the chief added.
Fontenot did not release the names of any of the suspects or the victims.
The first shooting happened at around 7:20 p.m., according to Fontenot, at an apartment complex on Mayers Street.
No one was injured in that shooting, though several vehicles and apartments were damaged.
At around 9 p.m., another shooting was reported at the intersection of North and South Mallet streets.
One person was shot in the arm, while another took a shot to the chest and, at last report, was listed in critical condition at an area hospital.
Anyone with information concerning these shootings is urged to call Eunice Police Department at 337-457-2626.
