Orange Park Police investigate shooting

ORANGE PARK – Detectives with the Orange Park Police Department are investigating a shootout that took place last night in the 200 block of Park Avenue.

Detective Cody Monroe said officers went to the scene at 11:18 p.m. after receiving a report that shots had been fired in the area of the BP Station.

At the scene, officers determined that minutes prior to their arrival, a verbal disagreement had taken place between the occupants of two separate vehicles who were parked near each other at the gas pumps. As the suspect vehicle began to leave the parking lot, someone in the car fired shots in the direction of the victim’s vehicle.

No one was injured in the shooting, Monroe said.

“It is unclear what type of weapon was involved in this incident,” he said in a prepared media release. “At this time, the suspect vehicle can only be described as a dark-colored sedan occupied by between two to four individuals.”

He said investigators are conducting interviews and reviewing video footage from the gas station cameras in to help identify the suspects involved. Anyone who may have information regarding this incident is asked to call the Orange Park Police Department at (904) 264-5555.
