Courtney M. Meeks was 24 and working as a security guard at a CVS on Schaefer Highway in Detroit on the evening of February 26, 2014 when he confronted an active carjacking in the store parking lot. Three armed men — later identified as Jeremy Vincell Jackson, Ronnie Alsonzo Anderson-Williams, and Jamare Lanell Rucker — had just tried and failed to steal a different car before targeting a vehicle at the CVS.

A woman who saw the attack ran back into the store screaming for help; Meeks, in his security uniform, ran out to intervene. During the confrontation he was struck once in the neck. He was taken to a hospital and later died of his wound. The suspects fled in the stolen vehicle but tips to Crime Stoppers led to their arrest. Jackson, Anderson-Williams, and Rucker were later charged in connection with Meeks’s death and ordered to stand trial.

Did anyone witness the parking lot altercation or see the stolen vehicle before it left the scene?
