On March 11, 2024, a MetroBus ride in Berkeley, Missouri, ended in deadly violence when a Dodge Caliber forced the bus to stop near the 8300 block of Airport Road and its driver opened fire. Jaron Jackson-Craig, 34, an African American man returning from a job interview and described as an innocent bystander, was fatally shot. He was known by family as a kind spirit; his grandmother is St. Louis gospel singer Zella Jackson Price and his mother is Sharon Jackson.

Authorities say the shooter, 36-year-old Anthony Laron Frazier, allegedly targeted another passenger, 37-year-old Jorge Andres Cantor Pinzon, over a perceived slight. Witnesses reported Frazier fired into the bus, then boarded and continued shooting. Both Pinzon and Jackson-Craig were mortally wounded and later died at a hospital.

Police linked the Dodge Caliber to a carjacking earlier that day in Bellefontaine Neighbors, used surveillance footage to identify Frazier, and arrested him near the carjacking location. The St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney charged Frazier with two counts of first-degree murder, one count of first-degree robbery, four counts of armed criminal action, and unlawful use of a weapon; he was held without bond.

Did anyone on that bus or nearby see something that could help clarify how the attacker selected his victims?
