JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - Jackson police say a 16-year-old was killed and his 18-year-old brother was wounded when both were shot after a dice game in a city park.

Investigators say an argument broke out Wednesday in Westside Park, and both teenagers were shot multiple times. A suspect fled on foot.

Davonza Bell was pronounced dead at the scene. His brother, Donta Curry, was taken to a local hospital, where police said he remained in critical condition Thursday.
