Northup is the brother of Jevon Scholl, 19, whose last known address was C-7. Scholl faces firearms charges related to gunfire April 30 at Meadowbrook Apartments.

In that case, police were responding to quell a fight brewing among a group of men at Meadowbrook when shots rang out. Again, no one was injured.

Two days later, in apparent retaliation, someone fired five rounds at 28 Schaeffer St., which was occupied by Allister Sampson; his girlfriend, Rebecca Scholl -- Jevon Scholl’s mother -- and two children, Capt. Jeffrey Allen said. No arrests have been made in that case.

Witnesses claimed and police confirmed today that the dispute is connected to the murder of Mark Wilson, who was found shot to death on the shore of Canada Pond, along Route 146, in Providence in 1998. No one has been charged with the killing.

Recent skirmishes have rekindled a conflict between members of Wilson’s and Scholl’s families, Allen said.

The police this afternoon recovered a green Pontiac believed to have been involved in today’s shooting parked in the yard at 200 Shannock Rd., police said. The car was towed to police headquarters and its owner Kharissa Wilson, Mark’s sister, had agreed to let officers search the vehicle, he said. A shell casing and two bullets were found at Champagne Heights.

“We don’t know where the driver is; we don’t know who the driver is,” Allen said.

Allen said witnesses were not cooperating with investigators, but that the shooting had been captured by video surveillance cameras on the South Kingstown Housing Authority property.

“We know the people who are involved. Once again, there’s no communication,” Allen said. He said he plans to try to engage the families in mediation.

“Someone’s gonna get shot, whether it happens in South Kingstown …,” Allen said.

The shots surprised Housing Authority Executive Director Edward Pearlman, who has made strides in decreasing crime and improving conditions at the housing development over the past several years.

“It’s been amazingly quiet,” he said, noting GED classes being held there and that the Rhode Island Raptors football team practices on the fields behind the development.

Still, those at the scene worry that someone is going to get hurt.

“They could have shot that little baby,” Patricia Young said.
