BELLE GLADE, Fla. — Deputies were investigating a triple shooting in Belle Glade that left one person dead and two others injured.

The shooting occurred about 1:15 p.m. Sunday in the 200 block of Northwest 11th Street.

Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Teri Barbera said three males were wounded and taken to a hospital.

Barbera said one of the victims died, but the other two were expected to survive.

Neighbor Lamont Jarrett said it's the younger generation in the community who are out of control.

"Some people act like they kids. Don't do nothing like they all angels, and they're not," Jarrett said. "What they do in the house is one thing. What they do in the streets is something totally different."

Detectives were investigating the circumstances surrounding the shooting.

Anyone with information was asked to call Crime Stoppers of Palm Beach County at 800-458-TIPS.
