Investigators in Fort Deposit named a suspect in a shooting that happened during a burial service at a cemetery on Saturday, June 26.
The Gipson family was saying last goodbyes to loved one, James Gipson, when a gunman opened fire at his funeral. One victim, Jerry Gipson, died and three others were injured.
The Fort Deposit Police Department is now looking for a suspect identified as 40-year-old Jerald Little. Little was the nephew-in-law of James Gipson.
“It’s sad because you have this family that is already grieving at one loved one, and now they have to deal with another loved one that was hurt in the process,” Sgt. Randall Johnson of the Fort Deposit Police Department said.
