A Charleston man died after being shot Tuesday afternoon on Marshall Street Extended, just outside the city limits.
Tallahatchie County Coroner Ginger Meriwether identified the victim as Robert Earl Holmes, 25, of 19 Nell St., Charleston.
Mr. Holmes was pronounced dead at 5:13 p.m. at the scene of the shooting, she added.
Meriwether said she transported Mr. Holmes' body to the Mississippi Forensics Laboratory in Pearl Tuesday evening for autopsy.
She noted that it was "undetermined" whether he sustained more than one gunshot wound, noting that further details are pending a "forensics lab report."
Tallahatchie County Sheriff Jimmy Fly could not be reached for comment Tuesday night, and no other information was available.
Fly and other lawmen reportedly were conducting interviews at the sheriff's office in Charleston late into the night.
