On Monday, August 21, 2017 at approx. 1:00 AM, Jackson Police Officers responded to I-220S near Watkins Dr. regarding a stalled vehicle in the lane of traffic with what appeared to be bullet holes in it.
Upon officers' arrival, it was learned that a gray Nissan Altima had sustained heavy damage due to what appeared to be gunfire. Officers discovered the driver of the vehicle, an unidentified black male, deceased in the driver seat. He sustained at least one gunshot wound to the head. He was the lone occupant of the vehicle at the time of the shooting. It appeared that he was traveling south bound on I-220 at the time this incident occurred. Evidence discovered on scene reflected the incident occurred while he was driving and the suspect(s) allegedly fired shots from another unidentified moving vehicle. This is the 38th homicide investigation for 2017.
There was no suspect nor witness information at the time of this reporting. Anyone with any information is urged to contact police at 601-960-1234 or 601-355-TIPS (8477).

On Monday, August 21, 2017, at approx. 1:26 PM, Jackson Police Officers responded to 1066 Branch St. regarding a shooting and stabbing. Upon officers' arrival, it was learned that Reginald Cammon-21, had been shot multiple times. He was pronounced deceased on scene. Demarcus Banyard-31 had also been possibly stabbed. He was transported to UMMC for medical treatment. He's listed in stable condition.
During the course of the investigation, it was learned there was a domestic dispute between the mother of Cammon and her boyfriend, Banyard. Barnyard physically assaulted her. She sustained several injuries about the face and body. Allegedly, Reginald Cammon intervened and Banyard shot him. She was also taken to the hospital for medical treatment and she's stable. Upon Banyard's release from medical treatment, he will be questioned and possibly charged in this incident.
This is the 39th homicide investigation for 2017. This investigation is ongoing.

And nobody from the office of the Mayor has anything to say.I thought the mayor would be different than the shuck and jive mayors from the past?????
Wonder if he is related to Demarious Banyard? Gotta be.
Did anyone really think the new mayor was any different than those before him?
He would not have been elected if he was any different.
I think Cammon was quite a bit younger than 21 and the time of the shooting is wrong. May want to check on this.

Always one step ahead of the criminals...I'm avoiding Branch Street this afternoon.
Wow. Predicting homicides in advance! "On Monday, August 21, 2017, at approx. 1:26 PM, Jackson Police Officers responded to 1066 Branch St. regarding a shooting and stabbing. Upon officers' arrival, it was learned that Reginald Cammon-21, had been shot multiple times." And EXACTLY at peak eclipse time, too! Illuminati confirmed!
"He was the lone occupant of the vehicle at the time of the shooting."
How'd they figure that out?!
This reminds me of either old-style Chicagoland gangster killings or jobs done by the Mexican cartels. It makes the old stories posted on here about the "Gold Coast" of Rankin County seem very tame!
Any updates on Freeze?
9:09 Remember the mayor is a politician and a lawyer. Lawyers know to never ask
a question if you don't know the answer. The mayor knows he has no answer to the
murder epidemic in his city. He'd rather talk about vague issues like poverty and
human rights or maybe a vegan diet. The murder problem is about basic human
behavior and that might not fit his political agenda. So let's have a vegan
sandwich.
Supersleuth... you should come up with another moniker. I'm no Perry Mason, but one can surmise that if blood spatter covered the other seating areas, no one could have been seated there.
Traffic cams on 220?
Let Rober S Smith get a crack at prosecuting these criminals...He'll show them that Jackson is not a place to carry on with criminal activities such as these...yea right!!!
The blame for this lies squarely on the voting constituencies's shoulders...
Hopefully these ignorant folks will experience the same level of service these victims did and we can go ahead an get the gene pool cleaned out so that somebody can move ahead with some progress
To comment on 1:11 analysis or question. It does seem like between those waiting for trial and the murders, a big hole in the "gone bad" populations should have been created. Of course, if Schuler-Smith does not get busier, we will have no improvement because all criminals will be out on bond.
The only good thing in all of this is that the "victim who is now deceased" (JPD cop speak) was driving a Nissan. We need to keep those non-Union employees making quality vehicles.
Victim in #1 was out on bond on a murder charge-
A listing of all the shootings on 220 over the last 10 years would be interesting. I bet you could make a pretty fly spreadsheet, maybe a pivot table or two.
It really doesn't matter whether the perps are arrested or continue to roam free like animals in a concrete jungle RSS will do NOTHING to bring them to justice!
Would one of you who blame the new mayor please explain your logic in how he could have prevented these events?
What words could he have said that will prevent a crazy person or criminal who is easily armed from being a criminal or a crazy person?
Did you expect all the crazy people and criminals to leave town or turn in their guns?
If you want to stop crime, you might start with understanding how it is people become criminals or how it is crazy people are out loose.
