On the evening of Monday, May 6, 2019, 18-year-old Keshawn Maurice Jackson, a Black male, was found unresponsive in the driver’s seat of his Toyota Corolla at the intersection of Briarcliff Road and Boulevard in Macon, Georgia. Deputies discovered Jackson had sustained a single gunshot wound to the head and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators say Jackson had stopped to speak with an acquaintance, 18-year-old Kyshaun Rashad Jones, when an altercation broke out and escalated. During the dispute, Jones allegedly shot Jackson and then fled on foot. The Bibb County Sheriff’s Office arrested Jones at his place of employment the next day, Tuesday, May 7, 2019, and charged him with Jackson’s murder; he was held without bond at the Bibb County Jail.
