JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2014 A woman is dead after being found shot at a home on Jacksonville’s Westside Monday morning.<\/p>\n
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office (JSO) is investigating the death on Justin Road East, east of Herlong Recreational Airport.<\/p>\n
In a news briefing Monday evening, a sheriff’s office homicide detective said officers responded to a call at around 10:25 a.m., reporting that a person had been shot. When officers arrived, they found a woman in the front yard suffering from at least one gunshot wound. The victim was taken to a local hospital, where she later died.<\/p>\n
The circumstances of the shooting were not immediately known, but a female person of interest was taken into custody at the scene, the detective said, and was being interviewed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A baby was inside the home at the time of the incident, and was taken into custody by the sheriff’s office’s Victim Services temporarily.<\/p>\n
It is unclear how the people involved are related.<\/p>\n
The detective said the incident is believed to have been isolated and no further threat to the community is expected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The woman was found shot in the front yard of a home on Justin Road East and died…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":212540,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[116,118,117],"class_list":["post-212539","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-jacksonville","tag-jacksonville","tag-jacksonville-headlines","tag-jacksonville-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/212539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=212539"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/212539\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/212540"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=212539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=212539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=212539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
