The Tallahassee Police Department has identified a victim in a fatal shooting Tuesday at The Commons.

According to TPD, 21-year-old Sharod Bryant died after being hospitalized with gunshot wounds. A second victim is in stable condition.

No suspects have been apprehended.

The announcement comes on the same day that TPD Chief Michael DeLeo is expected to detail a decrease in the crime rate during the first six months of the year.

Anyone with information is asked to call TPD at (850) 891-4200 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at (850) 574-TIPS.

Original story

Two people were injured in a shooting at the student apartment complex The Commons Tuesday night.

Officers responded at about 8 p.m. to the Tharpe Street complex.

At 9:50, TPD issued a news release saying that "arriving officers and emergency personnel provided immediate medical attention to two people suffering from gunshot wounds."

Only one was hospitalized but TPD spokesman Damon Miller did not have immediate details on the extent of their injuries.

Police were also investigating a possible connection between a traffic crash nearby, in which an individual took off running, and the shooting. The Leon County Sheriff’s Office Aviation Unit was searching for the individual who fled.

“We are not sure if that vehicle or person is involved or not,” Miller said.

Tuesday’s shooting is the fifth in a little more than a week in Tallahassee – including one injuring a pregnant woman whose baby was delivered and flown to UF Health Shands and one of several at student housing complexes since the start of the Fall semester.

Miller said there needs to be a “change of heart” to stem what has been a violent few days.

“It is unfortunate that these things are happening, and we just ask that everyone have a change of heart,” he said. “The shooting does not need to happen at all. Whenever parents send their students here we want them to know that they are safe here and we want them to go home with that degree.”
