ADDIS - One person died and another was injured after a double shooting on Chad Drive in Addis, according to officials.

According to the Addis Police Department, two males were struck by gunfire and one subject was found dead on the scene while the other victim is in critical condition.

The West Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office says 24-year-old Javontae Green was killed. The sheriff has not identified the other victim.

The Addis Police Department says the suspect is not in custody as he fled the scene on foot before the officer’s arrival. The suspect is described as an unknown black male wearing a face mask.

Addis Police Chief Jason Langlois said they believe the incident was a targeted shooting.

"This does seem like an isolated incident, we don't know the exact cause just yet. we are still in the early stages of the investigation," Langlois said, urging anyone with information to reach out to the department.

Drake Critney a resident of the neighborhood where the shooting occurred, says this is something that in his 20-plus years of living there he doesn't see.

"Most you'll see in cops' presence is if they're pulling someone over for speeding other than that no kind of crime like that," Critney said.
