Dameio Milton, a 48-year-old Jackson resident, was killed in a shooting in the early morning hours of August 16, 2025, at Club Metro on Martin Luther King Jr. Drive. Jackson Police arrived shortly after 2:00 a.m.; Milton was taken to a local hospital and died of his wounds. Two other people were wounded in the same incident and survived.

Investigators have described the attack as targeted retaliation, possibly tied to a mass shooting in the city the prior week. Jackson Police Chief Joe Wade confirmed Milton as the deceased victim and said the homicide investigation is ongoing. No arrests or suspect identities have been announced.

If anyone was at Club Metro that night or has information about the shooting or its possible connection to the earlier mass shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
