Police believe two deaths on Lamb are not related

Monday, April 11, 2005 | 9:43 a.m.

Metro Police detectives were investigating the deaths of two men within blocks of one another Sunday night along Lamb Boulevard, but police said they did not believe the deaths are related.

Witnesses told police that two men ran out of an apartment complex near Lamb and Owens Avenue about 8 p.m. and exchanged gunfire. One of the men, described by police as a 22-year-old man, collapsed and died in front of a Jack-in-the-Box restaurant.

Police said they are looking for 21-year-old Sergio Rodrigues because they want to find out what he may know about the shooting. He was not named as a suspect as of this morning, police said.

Less than a mile north of the shooting, a convenience store clerk walking toward a dumpster behind a 7-Eleven at Lamb and Washington Avenue discovered a wounded man, police said.

Officers arrived about 9:30 p.m. and found the man suffering from a gunshot wound, they said. He was taken to University Medical Center, where he was declared dead on arrival.

Detectives this morning were investigating the circumstances surrounding the man's death.

Neither man's name had been released this morning.
