Evan Brooks Jackson was a 25-year-old White man living in Lawton, Oklahoma, with his fiancée, Hannah Lyndsay, and their three-month-old son, Axel Dean Jackson. Known to family as hardworking and kind-hearted, he worked at a Stripes convenience store while pursuing his passion for motorcycles and supporting his new family.

In the early hours of Sunday, March 24, 2024, around 2:20 a.m., Jackson and a co-worker encountered someone who had been banned from the store; the confrontation moved into a nearby parking lot. Court documents say a man later identified as Dominique Lyon arrived in a truck and, during an encounter in the parking lot, allegedly opened fire on both employees after Jackson let go of the banned individual. Jackson was pronounced dead at the scene; his co-worker was hospitalized with gunshot injuries.

Dominique Lyon was identified by the Lawton Police Department and arrested; he was charged with first-degree murder and, as of March 2024, the case was proceeding through the court system. Anyone with information about the shooting was asked to contact Crime Stoppers of Southwest Oklahoma at (580) 355-INFO. Did anyone in the area see or hear anything near Sheridan Road and E Avenue that night?
