Update on our "fiery" car crash today: Law enforcement sources said the two yewts drove into a church parking lot in South Jackson. A JPD officer working security asked them if they were going to church. They said they just wanted to use the bathroom. He told them they were not for use by the public and that they needed to leave. One of them fired several shots in the air as they left. The officer notified JPD. They were driving down the street in one direction while a JPD cruiser passed them but going in the opposite direction. The police officer made a u-turn as she saw they were speeding but they were completely out of sight when she turned around as they high-tailed it at a high rate of speed. They later crashed. The police officer at no time gave chase because she lost sight of the suspect. In other words, they probably thought there was a chase for them even if none took place.
What the police did not know at the time is that the "victims" are suspected of committing an armed robbery this morning before the church incident.
Meanwhile, here is the Facebook profile picture of the driver, D'ante Steel. He was arrested a year ago for auto theft and is 19 years old.
Original post: A carjacking and police chase went up in flames for one local punk. WLBT reported:
WLBT crews are on the scene of a fatal accident on Greenview Drive and McDowell Road in Jackson involving two people. JPD has confirmed that the passenger of the car died at the scene. The driver has been taken to UMMC with critical injuries. Two men were in a Nissan Maxima driving on Greenview Drive when the car hit a tree and caught fire.
Jackson Police said the Maxima is a carjacked vehicle from a recent robbery and had been involved in a series of crimes just before the accident occurred. The family of the man who died in the accident has identified him as 18-year-old Nikey Richey. Family members say Richey burned inside the car. JPD has not confirmed the identity of the individuals involved.
This deadly chase wasn't Richey's first joyride. The Columbus Packet reported in August 2013:
Saturday afternoon joy ride lead to the arrest of three Columbus teens. Deshawn Stevens, Elijah Richey and Nikey Cashe Richey were arrested and charged with posession of stolen property after the white Cadillac Stevens was driving was reported stolen. According to police reports, the teens were pulled over in front of Autozone on Alabama Street in East Columbus. The car was spotted coming through the intersection of MLK Jr. and Main Street when the tag was checked by officer Joseph Strevel. Debbie Millern/The Packet Officer Joseph Strevel radios for backup.Meanwhile, he called himself "Badazz" on his Facebook page:
Stevens said they had bought the car in Jackson and had come to Columbus to spend the night in a hotel “with some females.” Richey, a passenger in the vehicle, was also charged with providing false information to law enforcement after he said his name was “Keshaw Miller.” A fourth passenger in the vehicle, Clifford Johnson, was also taken into custody but he was not charged with any misconduct. All of the occupants of the vehicle said they were headed to the store to buy cake and ice cream for a birthday party in the park. The three teens were held in the Lowndes County Juvenile Detention Center until they were transported back to Jackson by the Jackson Police Department.
His pictures show a devotion to the thug life as show in these 2012 Facebook pictures:
Oh, that was his old FB page, here is his newer Facebook page:
Foreshadowing?

That fire was just the prelude of things to come for him
Poor tree.
Could we deputize the tree?
Can someone tell me why I should care?
Keepin' it real...REAL DUMB.
Poor guys. It's terrible how that state flag made them turn out like they did...
You live that life and hang with those types what do you expect. He made his choices and he did have choices, many of them.
If he thought the car fire was hot, just wait til he arrives at his next destination
4:01, even though the racist flag had nothing to do with this, your redneck is glowing brightly. The flag of your racist heritage will go, sooner or later. Deal with it.
He was a good boy. Goin to college.
Crime rate in Hinds just dropped.
That tree jumped in front of the car. Limbs out don't prune
Trees matter
As the family mourns, maybe they could use their grief to help get thugs off the street and out of their communities. It's just a matter of time before this happens again.
HE WAS JACKSON !!!

For those of us breathlessly awaiting word on the tree's fate... It appears from the photos to be a well established oak tree perfectly capable of taking on a couple of stokesburgians in a stolen import.
JPD has identified the driver as Dante' Steele. (19 years old)

@3:48
Why should you care? Because Jackson just got a wee bit safer. One, and possibly two less thugs that won't be planting any more seeds. The end of the line for that gene pool.
Nostrils equal 2 more mouths. I'm sure one was enough to tolerate during his short term here.
wlbt has their initial report mentioning the "victims family". I didn't even know trees HAD family.
sympathies go to his momma. mommas always love their sons no matter how many laws they break
I am soooooooooooo sure the surviving thug laid up in the hospital has BCBS of Mississippi insurance and all is well from a financial stand point? Good riddance to BOTH.
P.S. @ 5:06 am..to hell with his "mamma".
Nikey Cashe.....does he have a brother named Reeebok Golde?
Matthew 5:43-48
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect."

Oak tree you're in my way"
That Smell of Death was around them! Glad the tree is going to be ok!
BTW as a "damn yankee" we have the same issues with Obama's sons in the North.....
Republican, Caucasian, Christian here who has been the victim of crime in Jackson. I now live in Madison County, although I still work in Jackson. Stop piling on here. Pray for the family who lost their loved one, no matter what he was doing wrong. I'm frustrated with the crime and the societal conditions in our capitol city. But the sentiment of many of you commenters here is as disgusting as anything I've seen. Stop it.
Is that his dad in two of those pictures? Looks old enough to be. Pathetic.
Young said Fisher-Ritchey had made some mistakes, but that he was a good person.
"He was a people person, anybody can get along with him. Everybody, anybody," he said. "He was smart, intelligent. He bumped his head a couple times, but he's a smart person, he’s a good person. Everybody loves him. That’s why everybody’s out here, because they know that even though he came from nothing, he’s trying. Even though everybody falls short of the glory of God. He was a good person though."
"But the sentiment of many of you commenters here is as disgusting as anything I've seen."
9:33: Really, anything? I don't doubt your sympathies, but I do think your reasoning is flawed.
Posts like these on JJ really bring out the sanctimonious White liberals living in denial. I'm not implying that 9:33 is a White liberal, but I've been reading this website for a while now. I do applaud the Kingfish for posting them, as it is necessary for one's survival in this town to remain informed of what is going on out there.
Firing shots in the air in front of a security officer at a church... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over? But I'm not surprised.
I've never been in a rehabilitation environment before (drugs, alcohol, gambling, etc.) but I do know that the first step to fixing a problem is acknowledging its existence. Grown males (and females) with barely an upbringing and guidance, much less any real morals, and a fearless, psychopathic nature are the product of a wandering sperm donor and a willing receptacle in the name of ego and a meager payday, respectively. Until this cycle is broken, until this dysfunctional "lifestyle" is no longer celebrated, encouraged, and/or profitable it will go on.
Me, I will pray for its demise.
He wuz fittin to be turnin his life around?
20:34 from 15:38
Guess that's why I carry a concealed weapon.
But you are right, one less piece of excrement off the street,

Don't tell us what to do, CREEP.
For the bible verse quoters and the disgusted, here's what you do. Print out a copy of these comments, circle your post, and in the unfortunate event you find yourself opposite a Nicky, a D'ante, or any of the other piece of human garbage out there feeding off of society, you just unfold your piece of paper and show them how much you care. Let them know that you quote verses or that you are disgusted by mean white people. See how that works out for you.
Identifying yourself as a conservative then spouting some BS about how we should be ashamed of ourselves just tells me that, while you might espouse the conservative ideals you claim, you still suffer from the hallmark mental disorder of the bleeding heart liberal; the inability to separate emotions and logic.
I'm sure mama's sad, and I'm sad mama's sad. But logic tells me the world is a better place without violent criminal predators running around. And that makes me happy.

I was wondering the same thing. His 'dad', or maybe his 'Special Down-low Buddy'. Not that the two categories are necessarily mutually exclusive, in certain cultures. What 'dad' should be expected to resist, when the pants are saggin' so alluringly? Surely, when the pants are saggin', this is an invitation to ANY potent male in the vicinity.
Can we do an indiegogo for the tree?
9;33 here, I am not a liberal. I'm pro-life and as annoyed by Donna Ladd as I am by your extremism. I use this site to stay informed also, I agree most all the time with Kingfish and appreciate his honest reporting. I'm a minister, and I help people bury other people. I am not what you say I am simply because I don't celebrate this person's death along with you. And I have faced the crime in this city as perpetrated by a young black man, and I lost. Still doesn't change me and what I do. I won't let it. Not judging you, and I guess I should have kept quiet, but I didn't. And you're more wrong about me and my motives than you'll ever know. But that's ok. I'm sorry you're so angry.
Too bad he didn't have more friends riding with him.
2:56/9:33,
Not angry, not extreme, nor celebrating (I didn't mention being happy or joyous about these events at all). I'm simply honest. If that's a bad thing then we're all doomed. Again, if there is a problem, face it head-on with brutal honesty.
I am, however, quite unhappy but nonetheless unsurprised that this will continue ad infinitum unless a change comes from within a culture that simply doesn't make a net contribution to society. The minister in the news story contributes; why didn't the deceased?
Thank you. Then we agree. It is a sad cultural condition. I don't think my comments were directed at you. Bless you and your honesty.
Just saw Nikey's momma on the 6:00 pm news, Monday. She was wailing and saying he's "....a good boy and he just got out of Oakley School and was doing good."
How come mommas is always blind?
Mother's love their children unconditionally and that will never change. When the parent fails to raise her children to respect themselves, those of the opposite sex, and the law, she can't blame proverty, the streets or race on a tragic outcome. In this case Mom didn't send her kid to Oakley, the courts did. It's up to the parent to monitor their kid 24/7. This means personally enforcing an early curfew, don't allow them to just chill at a friends house. Let his friends chill at your house or he doesn't get to chill at all. No going to the Malls, Walmart or any store unless he's buying something. Put a tracker on his phone and use it. If the kid baulks, throw the phone out. Parents always have control, if they care to take the responsibility 24/7. This is from a working class parent who raised 5 high school graduates. I have no out of wedlock granchildren, and nobody ever got arrested. It can be done if you don't make or accept excuses.

But, 8:33, the point you miss is that this boy performed precisely to expectations. No more, no less.
11:40 Sadly you're correct. Parents need to get off their butts and raise the bar. Kids will follow, dress, speak and behave according to how their parent acts and who they choose to associate with. Do as I say and not as I do doesn't work at any time.
9:33, Please remember that those were good Christian people who put Jesus on the cross. They thought they were right.
I'm black. I live in Jackson. Yes, we have a horrible crime problem. But I'm so glad my parents didn't raise me to gloat and make fun of other people. Some of the contributors on this site who are debasing this child's mother must also be raising their own children to be mean-spirited and abusive. We know her son committed crimes, but we know NOTHING about her. I know parents who did everything as right as they could, but still at least one of their kids got into trouble with the law.
6:09; From my vantage-point YOU are part of the problem. Give the parent (not plural) a pass. She did the best she could. The boy just took a wrong turn. Baby momma did all she could. BULLSHIT!
It does not take a psychologist to know that young adults whose behavior was SHIT for sixteen years had ZERO parental guidance. PERIOD.
They always wail and weep at the funeral.
6:09 "Please remember that those were good Christian people who put Jesus on the cross." Now that's just downright funny and ignorant. The only people around when Jesus were crucified were Jews and Romans. Period. The whole concept of "Christians" didn't exist until after the resurrection, DUH!
As far as his followers, how much of a "Christian" was Judas Iscariot? Why did Peter deny knowing Jesus three times?
Or are you the same guy who failed at being sarcastic here yesterday by posting about when "the world was created 2000 years ago"?
This Nikey God's Mother Rene Perkins. The bible said "Judge yea not." You have to know Nikey to understand him.I knew both side of Nikey,however,he need some adult guides in his life like all young teenagers do but adults don't have time for them anymore once they hit there teens. We are all humans everyone have a good and bad side of us. I don't know why society like to pick the bad side of a person none of us are perfect. Like God said "Who have not sin cast the first stone."
Eveyone one want to be the Mayor of the City of Jackson to change the community. Not one mayor have taking the time out how to help our Future Children to stay from the street life. While Mayor Yaborugh was giving the Key of City of Jackson to TI the rap he should have been making a board meeting how to save the children in the community stop the violence and crime we are having in Jackson.Jackson need an adolescent center for community children.
Oh dear. This is the kind of cops n robbers dress up that six year olds play at, not adult men. Fools.
5:03 What makes you think it's a city's responsibility to corral your kids, keep them off the street or provide them with a suitable role model. Like it or not that's the job of the parent. Before you have a 1st child or additional children, pretend you will receive NO extra SNAP, WIC, housing allowance or childcare credits. Would you still do it? It's hard to take responsibility when everything is given to you on a silver platter. It's even easy to blame a city for your or a family's shortcomings. I always thought a God Mother had the responsibility to raise the child according to the teachings of the Bible and to take and guide the child when the parent needed help. Somebody dropped the ball.
This is Nikeys mama if you don't have anything good to say keep your comments to yourself cause when it all boils down to it the boy had a good heart. So don't piss me off about my baby cause if he was here he would straighten it and everybody know it. Cause he had heart and very much loved. R.I.H mamas baby
Mothers love their children unconditionally, just as you do. Instead of threats, use your grief to teach others in your community how to spare their families and children the pain you are feeling.
Nikeys's mom, I can see the Apple didn't fall far from the tree.... Seriously? You threaten violence? Wow. Wow. Wow.
