Others could be involved in a shooting outside Lenox Square on Wednesday that left Jenna White injured, Maj. Paul Guerrucci said at a news conference Friday.

Police released surveillance footage of a man walking around Forever Diamonds, but Guerrucci didn't go into detail about why they thought others could be involved in an attempted robbery-turned-shooting.

In the video, one man is seen wearing a plaid shirt with orange-colored tipped dreads. Guerrucci said the man might have been on his phone.

Police identified the man as a person of interest and hope others in the Lenox Square parking lot during the shooting can help identify him. Initially, police were looking for two men connected to the shooting.

“There are so many unknowns at this point,” Guerrucci said.

Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers at (404) 577-8477 or text tips to 274637. Tipsters can remain anonymous. There is a crime stoppers award of $2,000.
