JPD issued the following statement.
Jackson Police are investigating a fatal shooting
that left one man dead and sent another to the hospital. It happened in
the 700 block of Chestnut Street.
Just before 11:00 am this morning, officers
responded to the area after receiving a call of multiple shots being
fired. There, they found several spent casings in the roadway and a
silver vehicle parked in front of a residence with numerous
bullet holes. Two individuals were found suffering from multiple
gunshot wounds. One victim, a 32-year-old black male, was immediately
transported to an area hospital and the second, 56-year-old black male,
Walter Roilton, was pronounced deceased at the
scene.
Little information is known about the shooting but
investigators believe that the shooters were occupying two different
vehicles; a white car believed to be a Dodge Charger and a maroon car
believed to be Nissan Altima. A motive still
remains unknown.
Kingfish note: At least 28 rounds were fired.

Sounds like Helen Keller with a pistol
WTF? Just WTF. That is all.
For Jackson to become a nice area again the thugs are going to have to have a lot better aim than this.
WTF is about all anybody at 3:04 AM can think of to say about anything.
Generally, everyone is still asleep this time of day.
They don't start moving until around 2:00.
Top Years for Jackson Murder:
1995 = 92
1994 = 91
2018 = 85 (Projection based on current murder rate.)
1993 = 84
1991 = 76
2008 = 73
1996 = 67
Why doesn't JPD report the calibers of these casings? 28 rounds could be a bunch of revolvers, or 2 pistol magazines worth or just 1 assault rifle magazine. The reports say multiple gunshots, but in the past reports have said it sounds like machine gun fire. To many people are just assuming that this is terrible aim with a pistol.
MS-13 is operating in the metro area. I guess most people won't believe it until skinned and beheaded LEOs are hanging from the stack.
Only 28-rounds? They must be the JV.
Why doesn't JPD report the calibers of these casings?
41 seconds into this report.
There you go again with the bullshit about machine guns.
@8:03AM thanks for the info. I long ago abandoned WLBT but that was informative.
9mm, .223, and .40
.223 is AR15 ammo
Lumbumba - you need to adjust for population exodus and decreases (not including homeboys that get shot dead)
Me old grandpappy told me that I should never draw a gun on another man unless it was in self-defense and I was prepared to pull the trigger. And that in such event, there should only be one account of the event that transpired: mine. Also told me about personal defense ammunition. Maybe these young gentlemen who are surrounded by these "perceptions of crime" should be using a more advanced form of ammunition in their weapons. FMJ's will pass right through, while an expanding projectile will likely achieve the desired result.
7:20 if you research a bit further, you will find a projected 85 to be the highest per capita murder rate
Nice try.
So Antar will join fellow high murder champ Melton (one term) in a tie for second at one apiece, but trail all-time king Ditto (two terms) and his five titles. Antar probably surpasses Melton next year, and matches or surpasses Ditto if he gets two terms.
Band music stops....
@7:36
MS-13 isn't active in Jackson. It's the same general groups of traffickers, hustlers, & domestic issues.
@9:30
Possibly. With 3 weeks left it could be record breaking "per capita" wise due to population decline. It should be more details behind homicides breakdown just like in other metro cities ( Memphis, Birmingham, New Orleans)
@1:36
I don’t know about ms-13. But I know for a fact the cartels are here. They generally lay low, own a few stash houses around town. But they’re here.
Didn’t even hit the f$&ckin Suburban - Ron White

KF; When you throw in remarks like that in the middle of a thread, they have no context, assume no position in the discussion and aren't related in any way to anything. WTF?
