Police are looking for an armed and dangerous man after two people were shot in a North Sarasota neighborhood in the early morning hours on Friday.

The shooting happened around 1:30 am at a home on the 1400 block of 21st Street, just off Central Avenue. 

Police said 33-year-old Linval Cohoone is wanted in connection with the shooting. He is considered armed and dangerous faces charges of Attempted Murder and Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon.

Neighbors tell 8 On Your Side that the family who live where the shooting occurred had just moved in within the past few months.
