Just after 1:00 this morning, police responded to 79 Shallowford Road on a shooting.
Once on scene, police located 19-yr-old Eric Lee standing in the road. Lee was suffering from a gunshot wound to the hip. Another man, 31-yr-old Jerel Fair who was also at the residence at the time of the shooting, was shot several times. Both men were transported to Erlanger hospital for treatment of their injuries.
A third man Naamon Collins was located several hours after the original incident. He too had been shot. It is not known exactly what occurred at the residence and what role the men played in the incident.
Investigators and Crime Scene analysts are working to gather information to determine the details of the events that unfolded at the residence.
The current condition of the individuals shot is unknown.

Investigators are still looking into the events that unfolded during the early morning hours at 79 Shallowford Rd. Two men were found suffering from multiple gunshot wounds after police were called to the residence on shots fired.
Investigators spent most of the morning at the crime scene collecting evidence. The roles played by the three men hospitalized are unknown. Details of the incident haven’t been forthcoming. Due to their medical conditions, not all have been interviewed.
Jerel Fair was the most critically injured. He suffered multiple gunshots to his entire body. Eric Lee, resident of the apartment, was shot once in the hip and was last listed in stable condition. Naamon Collins was shot in the thumb and is listed in stable condition.
Information will be released as details become available.

On the west side of Missionary Ridge, between S. Crest and Birdsmill Roads. I know of those apartments, or some next door. Forty years ago they were not umm, desirable housing. I knew one guy who lived there then; he moved quickly.
