On September 14, 2024, a block party at 4901 Laura Koppe Road in northeast Houston was interrupted when a vehicle pulled up around 2:25 a.m. and its occupants opened fire on the crowd. Twenty-four-year-old Marlon Antione Jackson was among three people killed; the other two victims were 24-year-old Jarvis Faultry and 23-year-old Breon Stuard. Jackson was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died of his injuries.

Eight additional people were wounded by gunfire — seven men ages 22 to 49 and a 43-year-old woman — and were expected to survive. Authorities later identified three suspects: 21-year-old Javion Tyrus Noel, 20-year-old Jakalyn Willis, and 20-year-old Markielo Jamal Reynolds. Each was charged with capital murder; Noel was held in the Harris County Jail with bond set at $400,000 on the capital murder charge and $50,000 on each of four unrelated firearms charges, while Willis and Reynolds were reported to be detained in Los Angeles and awaiting extradition.

Jackson is remembered by his family as a son, brother, and father to a young son, Kyrie. The investigation remains active and officials are asking anyone with information to come forward.
