Devonte’ Leshore Jacocks Sr., 26, was fatally shot inside the M&S Drive-Thru at 753 Springmill Street in Mansfield, Ohio, shortly after 11 p.m. on March 2, 2023. A masked gunman dressed in black entered the convenience store and opened fire; Jacocks suffered gunshot wounds to the head, chest and right thigh and later died at OhioHealth Mansfield Hospital. Two other people were wounded — one in the calf and a woman struck in the foot who left the scene and sought hospital treatment.

Surveillance footage and witness interviews were released as investigators searched for the shooter. Federal court allegations made public in October 2026 describe an alleged murder-for-hire plot tied to a December 30, 2022, confrontation outside the Bucket Bar. Those filings allege that Cy Michael Ison offered money to have people from that altercation killed, that Nakeial Carter arranged payment and that Jamir Tayshun Hess was the masked gunman, with further allegations about post-shooting efforts to conceal evidence. These are allegations reported in federal filings and not convictions.

Did anyone see the masked shooter near Springmill Street that night or recognize the person in the released footage?
