A Vicksburg man was shot Monday, and police were searching for clues.

Kawjana Jones, 19, who refused to give police his address, was shot around 1:30 p.m. in front of Fredella Village Apartments, 1205 China St., Vicksburg police Capt. Sandra Williams said.

Jones was treated and released from Merit Health River Region.

Two other people had bullet holes in their pants legs but were not injured in the shooting, she said.

Police responded to the shooting and received descriptions of several vehicles what were fleeing the scene, Williams said. A vehicle matching one of the descriptions was stopped in the 1500 block of Cherry Street, and Jones was a passenger, she said.

“Investigators did find a couple weapons inside the vehicle,” Williams said.

The vehicle was towed for evidence, and at least three people were detained for questioning, Williams said.
