Jordan Rose, a 20-year-old man from Michigan City, Indiana, was shot and killed in the early morning hours of July 12, 2025. Earlier that night police had dispersed a large crowd from Pullman Park and later the Grace Street area; many people then gathered at a BP on East Michigan Boulevard where the fatal encounter occurred.

Surveillance showed Rose approach a group near a black GMC; an exchange led to a man punching Rose and then three people moving out of camera view. Witnesses heard a gunshot and found Rose on the ground with a gunshot wound to his chest. He was taken to Franciscan Health and pronounced dead at about 2:28 a.m. Witnesses and Rose’s girlfriend told investigators an argument over a gun preceded the shooting and that Rose was licensed to carry. One witness said Rose’s gun fell after he was punched and that the man later picked it up; some witnesses reported the man claimed Rose had shot himself.

Police identified 25-year-old Quashawn Jenkins of Michigan City as the suspect and, on July 27, 2025, located and arrested him after using the Flock Safety camera system to find his vehicle. The La Porte County Prosecutor charged Jenkins with murder, felony murder, and robbery; he was booked with bond set at $1,000,000.

Does anyone who was at the BP that night or who knows Rose or Jenkins have information that could clarify what happened?
