No arrests have been made in a shooting that sent a 15-year-old to the hospital and that has the community on edge.
"Every day. I'm talking about every day," says Mario Parker who lives down the road from Thursday night's shooting.
Neighbors say they're considering moving, or that they don't feel safe letting their kids run around outside or at the park.
"For the young jitterbugs, half these clowns need to be locked up cause it don't make no sense... it's crazy."
And they're asking the community to do something about it. That's where places like the Martin Luther King recreational center come in.
"What we try to do here is just offer recreational services, education services, internet services, things like that, to get these young people off the streets and involved in what we're trying to do here," explains John Willis, the director of the Martin Luther King community center.
The shooting happened right next to the King center, where a 15-year-old was caught in the crossfire of a shooting. The shooting was an extension of a fight that happened at a Jackson school earlier in the day.
"Jackson needs to come together and put an end to it. That's all," claims Parker.
And the King center is doing everything it can to keep kids away from the violence.
"It's very important that our cities, that our government officials all understand the importance of making sure that we're engaging young people, making sure that we are offering them things that are positive for them to do to take them away from the streets," says Willis.
