JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office released additional information into a September 2023 triple shooting that left a 6-year-old boy dead.
A blue sedan was pictured leaving the scene at high speed at the Hollybrook Homes Apartments located at 104 King Street following a triple shooting on Sept. 27, 2023, according to JSO.
Investigators believe the vehicle is a blue Hyundai Sonata.
JSO said in September that it believed the person of interest fled the apartment complex on foot following the shooting.
Officers responded to the scene around 1:47 a.m., in reference to a person shot.
When they arrived, officers found three people shot; a 29-year-old man, 12-year-old girl and 6-year-old boy.
The victims were taken to the hospital where the 6-year-old was pronounced dead.
The two children who were shot were asleep in their beds when a single bullet struck both of them, killing the 6-year-old, Jacksonville Sheriff T.K. Waters said in September.
Family and friends identified the 6-year-old killed in the shooting as Miking Sims, who attended Andrew Robinson Elementary School.
Neighbors in the area previously told First Coast News the victims involved in the shooting were related, and the 29-year-old was the father of the two children.
First Coast News learned in September that the 29-year-old wasn’t supposed to be on this property, and was trespassing.
