Police said the victim was 58 years old. MPD confirmed two suspects were taken into custody -- a 32-year-old man and a 42-year-old man.

The shooting happened during an argument, police said.

FOX6 News was on scene Thursday, November 23rd, and neighbors said they believe the victim was shot at least four times. Several of them said they're simply sick of the gun violence -- especially on a day when people were gathering with loved ones to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday.

"I'm trying to see what's going on and police say it's a crime scene," a neighbor who didn't want to be identified said. "A person got shot four times. That's all the information they can give me."

Investigators were called out around 9:00 a.m. Thursday. They combed through the scene for hours -- taping off the end of the block, knocking on doors and collecting evidence.

"People get killed every day over stupid stuff," Charles Davis, neighbor said.

Davis said he was getting ready to barbecue on Thanksgiving when the sound of gunfire filled the air.

"You can't even walk to the store without getting robbed or beat up -- so we are tired of that," Davis said.

"All the people that's out here that have to go through this early in the morning on Thanksgiving -- it's just sad," a neighbor said.
