1 of 2 men found shot on rural dies, as deputies seek clues
HOLLY SPRINGS, Miss. (AP) – One of two Marshall County men found shot on a rural road has died, while the other remains in critical condition.
Marshall County Coroner James Anderson says 34-year-old Jamon Moton and 31-year-old Will A. Phillips were found on a road northwest of Holly Springs Friday night by a passing motorist.
Each man was shot once in the head. Anderson says it’s unclear if the men were shot on the road.
Marshall County Sheriff Kenny Dickerson says Phillips died where he was found late Friday night. Moton was taken by helicopter to Regional Medical Center in Memphis, Tennessee.
Dickerson says one of the men borrowed a black Dodge Charger found burned about three miles from where the men were found. Dickerson says at least one other person was in the car.
