RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- A 22-year-old died following a double shooting at a Raleigh apartment complex.

Raleigh Police Department said two people were shot just after 11 Sunday morning at Village at Town Center Apartments on Stillcrest Way near Triangle Town Center.

Markell Raekwon Hill was taken to WakeMed, where he died. Detectives are investigating the shooting as a homicide.

Neighbors told ABC11 crews they heard the moments shots were fired and the following sirens.

Julia Martin lives on the third floor at Village at Town Center Apartments. She said crime tape was wrapped around the lot and Raleigh police were talking to a man sitting in the grass.

"The cops pulled up. They were looking at him. And then a couple other cop cars and then they all ran this way," said Martin. "There were three ambulances. There was one guy on a stretcher and they were doing CPR on him."

Neighbors in the area told ABC11 they believe there should be more patrols and security measures in place after this incident. No information has been released on a possible suspect.

Anyone with information on the incident is asked to call the Raleigh Police Department at (919) 834-4357.

"I'm going to definitely keep them in my prayers. Nobody deserves to get shot," a neighbor who wished to remain unidentified said.
