Two women and a child are shot dead outside a food store in Florida after a 'dispute' between females

Police are investigating a tragic shooting in Florida which left two women and a child death and two others injured.
     The deadly shooting happened in the Moncrief area of Jacksonville in front of the Lil' Albert Food Store around 6:00pm on Sunday, WJXT reported.
     Four people - a man, two women and an infant - were shot inside of a car that was located on Cleveland Road near the Cleveland Arms Apartments.
     One of the women died in the car before she could be transported to the hospital.

Director of Investigations and Homeland Security for the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Ron Lundeay said the other three victims were rushed to UF Health Jacksonville where the other woman and infant died a short time later.
     Lundeay said shortly after the shooting, a third woman walked into the hospital with a gunshot wound.
     Police believe that she was involved in the same shooting. Her and the man's condition is unknown at this time.
     Police are investigating the incident and suspect that it was related to an earlier dispute between two women.
     Lundeay said that all five victims were shot with a handgun. He also said other people may have been shot but they are unable to definitively say as of Sunday night.
     'It's heartbreaking to know that an infant was shot and killed. It's a sad day for Jacksonville,' Lundeay said of the incident.
