On Thursday, November 19, 2020 officers responded to the Park at Devonshire Apartments on Industrial Drive in reference to a disturbance call that turned into shots being fired just before officers arrival. Upon arrival, officers made contact with the victim who advised that DEMONTE HATTEN began firing shots at him while HATTEN was on the balcony of his apartment. The victim returned fire with his own gun with neither men striking each other or any innocent bystanders. The altercation began over stolen property that HATTEN had belonging to the victim. Witnesses confirmed that HATTEN fired the first shots and the victim fired back in self defense. The gun that HATTEN used was recovered from his apartment. Hatten was arrested and charged with Aggravated Assault and Receiving Stolen Property and is currently being held in Rankin County Jail.

The hood rats are now officially everywhere.
Waiting for the Anti-Gun snowflakes to suggest Hatten's intended target should have simply retreated into the safety of his own apartment. No mention was made of the type grill that was stolen.
Rankin County must send a clear message with harsh penalties that firing guns at people will not be tolerated... whether someone is injured or not. There are people in Jackson who shoot for little or no reason on a regular basis. They think it is only serious if someone is hit. Richland had better send a message.
Put him in a tent behind an electric fence and feed him MREs.
They need to add Discharging a firearm in the city limits.
Richland is lost.
balcony gunfight, not very common, sort of cool.
Trivia: The city of Richland was once named Plain, MS. They decided to change it since it suggested less than mediocre. So they gave it a name that is almost identical to that of a city seven miles to the north.
9:23 they will. It is Rankin County.
Y’all talking about someone and don’t even know him how pathetic shut up you sick individuals
