Isaiah Lee, 28, was shot while sitting in a parked vehicle in Minneapolis on April 27, 2023, and died of his wounds on April 30, 2023. Witnesses reported hearing about a dozen shots in rapid succession, and surveillance showed a gray Dodge Charger speeding away after the firing. An occupant in the Charger’s front passenger seat was seen pointing a handgun out the window. Investigators recovered fifteen discharged cartridge casings from the street.

The Violent Offender Task Force arrested 28-year-old Dante Kenneth Carter and 31-year-old Shannon Jackson and charged both with second-degree murder. Carter was identified as the Charger’s owner and his cell phone data placed him in the area; Jackson’s DNA was found on a drinking straw inside the vehicle and his phone records also placed him at the scene. A witness later identified Jackson as the driver and Carter as the masked passenger. Firearms were recovered from Jackson’s residence and from the vehicle Carter occupied, and Carter faces an additional felony firearm-possession charge tied to prior convictions.

If anyone has information about Isaiah, the shooting, or the gray Dodge Charger, please share what is known.
