It seems like a message,'' police Lt. Lorenzo Whitehead said. No one else was injured in the shooting Saturday, including a 1-year-old child who was with one of the victims.<p> The victims were identified as Emmett Greene, 27, and Alexander Harris, whose age was not available Sunday night.<p> The Cutz barbershop is owned by Mourning, a former Miami Heat star now with the New Jersey Nets, and barber Peter Bethel.<p> Mourning's agent, Jeff Wechsler, did not immediately return a call seeking comment Sunday. There is no phone listing for Bethel in Miami.<p> The shop's neighborhood, in the northern part of Miami, has attracted upscale restaurants and businesses as it has been redeveloped.<p> ``This is a really classy spot. A lot of celebrities come here,'' said Paul Jenkins, a regular Cutz customer. ``Nothing would ever indicate that this would happen here.''<p> AP-ES-09-07-03 2232EDT<p>[ September 07, 2003: Message edited by: Bumfketeer ]</p>
