Carltravious Jones, 20, of Vero Beach, Florida, was shot on January 19, 2020, during what investigators describe as a botched drug deal at the BP Express Mart at 20th Avenue Southwest and Oslo Road. Jones had arranged to buy marijuana through Snapchat and drove to the meet with four passengers. Camden Stukins, then 18, approached the front passenger window to complete the transaction. When Jones allegedly failed to pay, Stukins fired multiple rounds into the vehicle, striking Jones in the head and also wounding 17-year-old Almajzha Johnson, who was in the front passenger seat.

After being shot, Jones attempted to flee and collided with other vehicles before dying later that night at HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital. The Indian River County Sheriff’s Office arrested Stukins about an hour and a half after the shooting at his home and charged him with multiple offenses, including first-degree murder, attempted murder, and related weapons and drug charges. Jones’ family described deep grief and frustration over the loss.
