“If anyone knows anything, they need to contact us with the information,” he said.
Residents in that area of town were discussing the shooting on social media Monday morning, including District 2 Councilman Marcus Jackson, who represents the area.
“I pray that everyone is safe after receiving several phone calls last night around 11 o’clock, from citizens, who were awakened by gunfire in the Cosby Court and Bent Tree area,” Jackson wrote. “Multiple homes were hit by random bullets as these families were resting. As I told them last night, I have full trust in Chief Thompson and his staff to find the perpetrators!”
Anyone with information is asked to call the Prattville Police Department at 334-595-0208 or the Secret Witness Line at 334-595-0259.
