An afternoon shooting in the Center Point area left one person dead and five people in custody.

Jefferson County sheriff’s deputies were dispatched at 4:38 p.m. Thursday to Charter East Apartments, said Lt. Joni Money.

When they arrived, they found a male who had been shot at least once. He was pronounced dead on the scene.

Investigators were able to get a description of the suspect vehicle. With help from Flock cameras and the Metro Area Command Center, deputies obtained a location of that vehicle and stopped it after a brief pursuit.

The five suspects are currently undergoing questioning. Money said the circumstances of the shooting are still being determined.

The identity of the victim is being withheld pending notification of family.
