He had multiple gunshot wounds, Dye said.
Cahokia Heights Detective DeMarius Thomas said police received multiple calls about shots fired in the area off Levin Drive and Isabelle Street.
“Upon arrival officers located one male deceased from a gunshot wound and a second man suffering from a gunshot wound,” Thomas said.
The second victim was taken to an area hospital for treatment of his wounds. Thomas said at last check he was doing fine.
