A violent confrontation at a Slim Chickens in Jackson, Tennessee, ended with the death of 32-year-old Andretti Lebronski Siddell on January 21, 2025. Police say Siddell and a group entered the restaurant’s kitchen around 6:30 p.m. and began physically assaulting a 22-year-old employee, identified as Harrison Cobb. Cobb reportedly retrieved a handgun during the assault and opened fire. Siddell was struck and rendered immobile; after a short interval Cobb fired additional shots while Siddell was unarmed and no longer a threat. First responders tried to save Siddell, but he died at the scene. Two others from Siddell’s group suffered non-life-threatening injuries. The entire encounter was captured on surveillance video that investigators are using.

Cobb was taken into custody at the scene and charged with first-degree murder; an arraignment was scheduled in Jackson City Court. Authorities have not released a motive for the initial assault. Siddell, born December 30, 1992, was a 2012 Humboldt High School graduate who worked at Tyson Foods and is survived by his parents, several siblings, and a bonus daughter.

Did anyone witness the incident or have information about what led to the assault on the employee?
