Timothy Jackson, 43, was killed on June 7, 2018, in Peoria, Illinois. The killing began after a physical fight on West Wilcox Avenue between Timothy and his nephew, 27-year-old Anthony L. Jackson. Timothy suffered a stab wound during the first altercation and was taken to a hospital for treatment. After being released, he returned to the scene and was confronted again by Anthony, who shot him five times. Timothy was found slumped over the wheel of his car parked near his girlfriend’s home; the Peoria County coroner said the gunshot wounds caused his death instantly.

Peoria police treated the incident as a homicide and charged Anthony L. Jackson with several offenses, including murder, aggravated battery with a knife, unlawful use of a weapon by a felon, and having no FOID. The shooting was reported as Peoria’s 10th homicide of 2018 and was described as stemming from a family dispute.
