This story was updated at 11 a.m. to include the identity of the second victim.

During one hour early this morning, two people, including an 18-year-old, died and three were injured by gunfire in Huntsville.

The teenager, Phillip Montague, of Huntsville, died at Huntsville Hospital as a result of injuries he sustained when shots were fired on the 2200 block of Evans Avenue around 12:45 a.m., Lt. Stacy Bates said.

Several shots were fired and three others were injured when several people got into a fight, Bates said.

About 30 minutes earlier, officers found 40-year-old Jeremy Cook's body inside an apartment on the 6200 block of Katie Drive, Bates said.

Cook's cause of death was a gunshot wound, Madison County Coroner Bobby Berryhill said.

Investigators are searching for a black male suspect who may be wearing either a red or white hoodie, Bates said.

"Neither of the shootings appear to be random acts, and investigators believe there were arguments or altercations that led up to both shootings," Bates said.

While officers were investigating the report of the second shooting, four victims, including Montague, arrived at Huntsville Hospital in personal vehicles. The condition of the other three victims wasn't immediately available.

Several shell casings littered the street on Evans Avenue when officers arrived, Bates said.

Anyone with information about either shooting is asked to contact the Huntsville Police Department at 256-722-7100.
