Puckett’s uncle told LEX 18 that his nephew played football at Bryan Station High School for over two years before transferring this spring.
Police continue to search for the shooter. Officers say one person went voluntarily to the police station for questioning, but they did not file any charges.
Investigators released a general description of a possible shooter, saying he was a black man around 5-feet-8 with a thin build and short hair. He was last seen wearing a red shirt.
