ORIGINAL: The Morristown Police Department is asking for information relating to a homicide that happened Saturday morning in North Morristown.
MPD was dispatched to Five Point Mobile Home Park on Brights Pike Road before 1 a.m. Saturday after 911 callers reported hearing gunshots in the area, according to Morristown Police.
Officers found 35-year-old Francisco Suarez on the ground suffering from a gunshot wound to the head. A second victim, 26-year-old Julio Torres, was found dead in his car outside his residence, MPD said.
No motive is known at this time. According to MPD, both men worked for the same construction company and lived at Five Point.
Investigators are asking anyone in the area to check their home surveillance for any people or vehicles during that time and report anything suspicious to the Morristown police.
They also released pictures of a car they believed was related to the shooting — a white 2005 Pontiac Vibe. They said the car was stolen and may have been driven by the suspect, or suspects before it was found abandoned after the shooting.
In surveillance video, they said the car approaches a person who was walking near a Sunoco gas station in Buffalo Trail at around 12:35 a.m. Saturday. They said that person is not a suspect, but hoped that the person would give them information about the vehicle or its occupants.
Anyone having any information about this incident is urged to contact police. Information can be reported anonymously anytime at 423-585-1833 or you can call the Morristown dispatch center at 423-585-2701.
