A late-night confrontation at a West Point residence on Glendale Road ended with the death of 40-year-old Joshawon Ross. On October 5, 2025, Ross went to the home of his ex-girlfriend accompanied by his current girlfriend; inside the house at that time were the ex-girlfriend, her current boyfriend Dennis Roberson Jr., and three other people. Around 11 p.m. Ross began banging on the door but never entered the home. Reports indicate no physical fight occurred between the two men before gunfire.

Dennis Roberson Jr., 45, fired at least three shots; Ross was struck and died at the scene. No one else was injured. Roberson was arrested at the residence, charged with murder, and booked into the Clay County Detention Center without bond. The investigation remains ongoing as authorities continue to gather information about what led to the shooting.
