Darrius Damarquell Reginal, 23, was shot and killed in Jackson, Mississippi on the evening of January 27, 2021. The shooting took place at the intersection of State Street and Northside Drive; a female companion who was with Reginal was also struck but survived. Investigators treated the attack as targeted rather than random and identified two primary suspects.

Within weeks, police arrested Markell Felder and Trevonte Sparky Freeman and charged each man with one count of murder in Reginal’s death plus aggravated assault for the injuries to the female companion. Investigators reported a long-running dispute between the female victim and the two suspects that may have motivated the attack. Both arrestees were booked into the Hinds County jail as the case proceeded.

If anyone witnessed the shooting at State Street and Northside Drive or has information about the dispute leading up to that night, please share what is known.
