Jason Douglas Holloway, 44, of Lubbock, Texas, was shot and killed on November 8, 2020, in the parking lot of Market Street Grocery Store in Lubbock after finishing his shopping. He was putting groceries into his car when a man in the adjacent vehicle shot him. Holloway was taken to University Medical Center and pronounced dead on arrival.
Holloway worked as a welder at WW AFCO steel in Lubbock. He was born January 2, 1976, in Fort Collins, Colorado, and grew up in Starkville, Mississippi, and Baldwin County, Alabama. He is survived by his wife, Amanda, and their young daughter, JoLeigh. A GoFundMe was set up to help the family with expenses following his death.
Police arrested 34-year-old Robert Baker of Lubbock a few hours after the shooting at Covenant Medical Center, where he had driven after the incident. Authorities say Baker admitted to the shooting and told them he was suffering from COVID-19 and experiencing confusion and hallucinations. He was charged with murder and aggravated assault. Holloway’s family later filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Robert Baker and his wife, Hannah Baker, seeking $75 million in damages for gross negligence, negligent entrustment, and civil assault and battery.
