On the evening of February 20, 2024, two teenagers were shot in the 5200 block of West Street in Forest Park, Clayton County, Georgia. Fourteen-year-old Majesty Riley suffered a gunshot wound to the chest and was taken to a local hospital, where she later died. A 15-year-old male was also shot in the arm and was hospitalized in stable condition.

Investigators say the shooting stemmed from a prearranged meeting about a bookbag that escalated into gunfire. Clayton County police identified 18-year-old Jayden Jacobs and 19-year-old Damarejay Garmon as suspects. Arrest warrants were issued shortly after the attack; Garmon was arrested on February 26, 2024, and Jacobs was taken into custody on March 1, 2024. Both face felony counts including malice murder, aggravated assault, and armed robbery in connection with Majesty Riley’s death.
