PATTISON, Miss. (AP) - A weekend shooting at a Mississippi bar that left two people dead has resulted in three arrests so far.
The Vicksburg Post reports that authorities are looking for a fourth suspect as well in the shooting early Sunday in Pattison.
Suspects arrested so far range in age from 18 to 24. Claiborne County authorities say they face charges of aggravated assault and murder in the deaths of Gerreinsha Gibson, 21, and Justin Marshall, 23.
Claiborne County Sheriff’s Investigator Maj. Troy Kimble said Gibson was a bystander and Marshall was a member of one of two groups involved in the dispute that led to gunfire.
Kimble said the groups were rap groups that had been insulting each other through their music on social media.
Members of both groups were attending a birthday party at the Wilson Lounge in Pattison when the argument broke out and guns were fired. Kimble said weapons were recovered at the scene.
