Renae Alexander, a 45-year-old Navy veteran and mother of three, was killed on November 2, 2019, after being caught in a violent carjacking attempt in the Mechanicsville neighborhood of Atlanta. She was sitting in her silver Chevrolet Malibu when a masked man with a gun approached. At the same time a second masked carjacker targeted a woman in a Chevrolet Camaro; that driver reversed to escape and struck Alexander’s vehicle. Gunfire followed; Alexander was hit twice and a friend who ran to help was shot in the leg. The stolen Camaro was driven away and Alexander was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, where she died of her injuries.

Atlanta police identified four suspects. On November 11, 2019, 19-year-old Shakiyah Jones was arrested. In January 2020, 20-year-old Jacquez Barnes was taken into custody. In February 2020, 21-year-old Reginald Bryant and 19-year-old Javonne Spencer were arrested; Bryant was already jailed on unrelated charges and Spencer surrendered. All four were charged with murder and held in Fulton County Jail without bond.
