Texarkana Texas Police are reporting that an early morning shooting has left a 17-year-old Texarkana young man dead and a 16-year-old in custody.
Details are still being pieced together at this time, but according to a Facebook Page report from the Texarkana Texas Police Department, Officers were dispatched to the 1000 block of College Drive around 1:30 AM to the reports of a shooting.
When Officers arrived on the scene they discovered the body of the shooting victim inside an apartment there. The deceased male has now been identified as 17-year-old Jason Hubbard.
