NATCHEZ — The Adams County Sheriff’s Office recovered two guns Wednesday afternoon that may have been used in recent shootings in Natchez, Adams County Sheriff Travis Patten said.

“We received a tip this afternoon that guns were hidden under a house,” Patten said.

Patten said he and deputies searched the house at 107-C Jackson St., and found two guns under the house.

One of the guns was a Smith & Wesson 9mm pistol and the other a Daniel Defense M4 300 Blackout with a suppressor on the end of it, Patten said.

“One of the reasons we believe the guns may have been involved in recent shootings is because of the calibers used in the shootings,” Patten said.

He said the guns have been processed and have been sent to the state crime lab for DNA and fingerprint processing.

The past two Saturdays, multiple shootings have occurred at several locations in Natchez, killing two men and wounding four others.

In the Saturday, Sept. 15, shootings Damion Green, 23, was killed and two unnamed men were injured at two other locations. No one has been arrested yet for the Sept. 15 shootings.

In the early morning hours of Saturday, Sept. 21, Lewis Jackson III, 25, was killed and two other unnamed men were injured at separate locations. Two men, Jamaien Washington and Darryl K. Hurts Jr., 20, face murder charges in Sept. 21 shootings.
