South Bend Police responded to a double shooting at the South Bend Avenue Apartments at 5:38 pm on Wednesday afternoon.
Metro Homicide confirmed one victim suffered a gunshot wound to the head and sustained life-threatening injuries.
The second victim was wounded and is expected to be okay.
Joe Archer, a neighbor who lives directly across the street from the scene says the victims didn't look much older than 20 years old.
“I think these things happens every day and I think it's unfortunate that it happened so close to a couple schools and for the families who live nearby as well,” says Archer.
