The victim stated he left his home to avoid further violence, however; the girlfriend's relatives followed him to another location. That is where the relatives, later identified as Lucius Mason and Terrence Mason pulled out a gun and started shooting at him, reports state.

Terrence was taken into custody during that time, but detectives were still unable to find Lucius. 1 injured after overnight shootings in Fox Meadows, Frayser On November 11, deputies say they were called to an additional assault complaint on Charleston Mason Road where Lucius had attempted to shoot the victim again.
