Homicide detectives responded to the scene to canvass the area and speak with witnesses, officials said.
The house was the scene of a shooting a little over a month ago. Bullet holes were still in the front door from the Nov. 28 shooting.
"Here we go again, it's always this property and that house," said one neighbor who didn't want her name used.

Residents believe the shootings could be related to drug activity. Kaylin Matthews said emergency workers have been to the house as often as twice a week over the past year.
"A lot of activity over there. If it’s the emergency people coming out for drug overdose or shootings," Matthews said. "It’s unsafe! I’m pretty sure people are trying to move. We are."
