2 Shot to Death Near Parade Route

 Jordan Kyle Cummins surrendered to the Rankin County Sheriff this afternoon.  Cummins is a suspect in two homicides that took place on Jefferson Street near Amite Street as the St. Paddy's Day Parade rolled a few hundred yards away.  

Cummins is a resident of Florence.  He is now in the custody of the Capitol Police.  Sources say several people witnessed the suspect beating his girlfriend in their vehicle.  A child was in the vehicle as well.  Several people tried to intervene and Cummins allegedly began shooting.  He shot one of the men attempting to stop the assault and one of his rounds randomly struck a woman.

This is why I’m a “not my monkeys, not my circus” kind of guy. Dude was minding his own business beating his girlfriend in the car while drunk like I’m sure he has many times before, then some “Good Samaritans” attempt to intervene and get themselves and innocent bystanders killed.

Look, this may sound awful, but I’m going home to my wife and kids so they don’t grow up without a father. Strangers’ bad life decisions are not going to factor in to that whatsoever if I can help it. Imagine if they hadn’t had done anything and minded their own business and kept walking. Likely the girlfriend would’ve suffered a bad beating but lived (which I’m sure wasn’t the first time, and she kept herself in that situation to receive another) and innocents wouldn’t have died. They’d be going home to their families instead of the funeral home.

Safety Rules to live by:

1) Don’t be in Jackson or some similarly situated 4th world country;
2) Mind your own business. No good deed goes unpunished;
3) Carry in case you fail at 1 & 2

Alright Tomie, lets see if those blessings work on whites from Rankin County.

Wait, so your#1 rule contradicts prior beatings unless you’re implying the Rankin county resident travels outside of his county to beat his girlfriend. It also seems that you’re blaming the geographical location…genius observation.

Sad for the girlfriend who was getting beaten by a loser. Sad for the well-intentioned guy who got killed trying to help someone in distress. I am pushing for death penalty for any murder crime. Need to get this type of person out of society and send a message to others who decide to use killing to settle their problems. We value the lives of killers too much, and for too many judicial appeals. If found guilty, fast track appeal, then execute the guilty.

Enhanced carry is permitted at parades as long as you are abiding by the law and the parade route has pulled a permit. However if you are at the parade carrying a weapon and consuming Alcohol you can’t carry. Which makes the parade no fun lol.

I remember going to see collective soul at jubilee jam on the Friday night back in late 90s. Two white dudes got into an argument in middle of crowd a few yards way. Dude pulls out a revolver and points it at other guy. Everyone was running or diving, thankfully he didn't shoot.

@4:51 Apparently your level of comprehension is lacking. The comment as you may need someone to help you decipher took blame away from the woman beater and placed it on avoiding areas. But you are agreeing with a person that references a city and countries being used interchangeably.

The deceased was a firefighter and police. His instincts to help is what got him killed. On or off duty. Thanks for your service Sir!

The fairgrounds were packed with legislators and cops just across the street. The poor girl hit by the stray bullet was sitting in the back of a black pick up truck parked on the street.

I was at that show. Not long after that, somebody threw a beer bottle at the stage.

Lead singer cussed the crowd, said “we’re never coming back here again.” They did one more song & they were gone forever.

There was an innocent girl that I know that was killed also because her boyfriend was trying to keep some piece of sh.. from beating his girlfriend in front of an innocent child. I hope this scumbag gets the death penalty. He killed not 1 but 2 people.

9:36, it’s not just Mississippi it’s the whole world has gotten moral decay. This is happening too often because people think the right thing to do is pull a gun out in any situation. Learning that the man who go killed was an LEO and was doing what he was trained to do. Neither the officer nor the female in the back of the truck deserved this. Now, maybe, just maybe if the female he was beating had left his sorry ass a long time ago none of this would have happened. I wonder how she feels this morning and how she will feel after she realizes that or someone tells her. She had the power to leave and didn’t.

Kingfish, I was also at that Collective Soul concert. After the lead singer went off about someone throwing the bottle or whatever it was, my brother and I looked at each other and walked out. I didn’t care if that jack-wagon ever came back or not. Sometime around that same timeframe, we went to see James Brown. Left quickly at that one too after all the worship chanting turned my stomach. I liked his music but I don’t worship any man.

Hate this for the Good Samaritan’s family. While the first commenter’s position is understandable, it is wrong. Evil triumphs when good men do nothing. The man did the right thing. Sometimes doing the right thing does not end well. If you stand by and watch a man beat up a woman and do nothing, you are a sad excuse for a man. If you are afraid to approach a situation like that, at least have someone call 911 and video it, and stand off a ways and scream at him to stop with your hand on your pistol. Stand behind the line of the front door like the cops do. Just do SOMETHING.

Hope this guy gets the maximum penalty - which should be a rope but we are too “civilized” for that these days.

3:14 Uh, do you think violent dudes from coming into your town or city?
You've missed all the news stories of crazies shooting their spouses with collateral damage at other gatherings?
So you think we should just ban parades and close all bars or would putting up road blocks keeping non-residents out be good with you?
Sadly, lots of other countries know how to reduce violence...both in preventing it and treating those who are mentally ill.But, you don't want to know how, you are actually entertained by violence and it makes you feel better about your shortcomings to tell yourself " I'm not that bad".
To me, it YOU and those like you who are the problem. You won't educate yourself...you react emotionally and based on your life limited experiences.
You won't even figure out how what laws used to work well for us existed or how Dodge City was tamed. Nope...you want to bring your guns to town and even get to hide them rather than show off your holster and weapon.
That's ok...just keep on believing John Wick really can take out 20 guys with one shot each from his pistol and still functions when wounded LOL

You are clinically insane if you think anyone who isn't a Republican extreme right winger doesn't want to see a murderer incarcerated or punished and I frankly don't know many Southern Democrats who oppose the death penalty.
I don't assume every Republican is crazy or a con artist or dumber than rocks or lacks emotional control ( especially anger management) based on George Santos or Jim Jordan or Margie Taylor-Greene. Nor do I think they are all criminals based on the long list of convicts Trump had to pardon!( read the trial transcripts and evidence presented).
But, then I'm not gullible and have a wide circle of caring friends and family. I can "play well with others" so I don't need to join any group or cult and pledge money or swear blind loyalty or pay to see them just to feel valued.
Do you really and truly believe that these politicians care if you prosper? Yes, and so did a lot of Germans and Italians and Bosnians and Argentinians ...all of whom found if they prosper ed at all, it was short and ended in catastrophe.
Your only hope is YOU and laws which are fair do not favor your party or the powerful. But, if you don't pay attention to the details, you'll be duped every damn time.

I would very much appreciate (perhaps from those posters who actually knew the Shooter), being told about his use of substances (since adolescence, as well as at the time of this tragedy).

Yes, he probably was predisposed to bad behavior, by life experiences (bad daycare, school bullying, a toxic family life ... who knows?), and by malnutrition (beginning with prenatal, and continuing with the sugary 'Standard American Diet'. But Big Media deliberately censors information about killers' use of substances, and, since this is a local story upon which locals are commenting, it would be nice to have input about substances;

Not just the big/bad drugs (prescription or cooked-up in labs), but also the supposedly-harmless "herbal" substance, as well as alcohol, would be of interest. And I, personally, suspect that tobacco and SUGAR help create the "perfect storm" of elements leading to a murder. Is this the sort of guy who drinks 2-litre bottles soft drinks? ...a quart of Tropicana, every morning?

Others can dwell on the moralistic aspects of the story. But I see murders as being the product of brains-on-fire. Clearly, this guy's brain was on-fire, and I want to know WHY.

He definitely will receive the death penalty. It might not come from a judge or jury, but it definitely will come from a fellow Parchman inmate. And nobody will care.

Here is some “scoop” for all you “convict him before we know the facts” people. There is camera footage from four different angles showing he never touched his GF and that the “Heroes” jumped on him and the GF, putting a gun in HER face, before the defendant got his gun and started shooting. Stay tuned for more. Hey Kingfish how about a records request getting the videos? He immediately left the scene for safety and called law enforcement he knew personally to turn himself in. He wasn’t “apprehended” he voluntarily surrendered. Carried a gun because he works in Jackson and was robbed and shot previously.

I remember when I moved to the Jackson area in 1973, the St. Patrick’s day parade was instituted.It has managed to degenerate into a Sh*t show after about 10 years of success. People are robbed, assaulted, and if there any reason to drive on I 55 leaving the airport after sunset? Other than the fact that you can’t drive on the streets, drink the water, actually receive the water, lock EVERYTHING you own up, and watch your property values depreciate like the value of Bit Coins, for the life of me , I do not understand. It has gotten to the point that the residents are the ones locked up ( actually locked in).

I'm sure you don't understand. Anything.

I didn't know there were problems with the parade in 1983, 1993, or 2003. Silly me.

I'm a female and I am telling any men out there, do not get killed trying to intervene. These women made choices. Let them deal with the consequences.

Most of these women will defend these monsters and even turn around and fight the poor good Samaritan. I will never understand women who put up with these men, any more than I will ever understand the monster-men that beat them.

I know lots of men in the South are raised to "do the right thing" but sadly, these days...the right thing is to call the cops and keep walking.

God bless the families of these victims, and may the murderer be punished and removed from society permanently.

That's the best you've got? Maybe *your* mom also drank sugary fizzydrinks and ate Count Chocula while she was carrying you. Then, after you were born, instead of being breast-fed, you got that toxic soup of soy "protein" and seed oils called "formula". Then, maybe you were weaned onto "Sunny D", pasteurized fruit juices every bit as bad as sodapop, sugar-coated cereals, and Pop Tarts. Are you recognizing yourself in the description of the Shooter's probable White Trash upbringing? Is that why you're lashing-out? Is that your problem? But really, precious peach, you ought to come up with something better than that.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
