Jake Red, 28, was shot and killed in a Tacoma, Washington commercial parking lot on August 12, 2020. According to accounts, Red, a Black/African American man, was struck multiple times in the neck, back, and abdomen after a dispute driven by jealousy. The shooter was identified as a close friend and fellow gang member, Dyrell Swinson, who reportedly accused Red of being involved with the mother of his children. Earlier that day the two men had been together with a mutual friend. Later, Swinson pulled up next to the vehicle Red was in, accused him again, retrieved a handgun from his car, and opened fire. A witness who was friends with both men fired at Swinson as he fled.

The next day police located Swinson and a confrontation followed in which a police K-9 named Ronja was fatally wounded and an officer sustained shrapnel injuries. Swinson was shot and taken into custody. If anyone knew Jake, saw him in Tacoma around August 12, 2020, or has information about that parking lot encounter, please come forward.
