A disagreement in a Roanoke parking lot on the evening of June 8, 2018, ended in deadly violence when 42-year-old Michael Daniel Jackson was shot outside the LT Store near Washington Park. Jackson later died of his injuries after a physical altercation escalated to gunfire.

Investigators identified two men in connection with the shooting, Shannon Walker and Derrell Jones. Walker was charged with first-degree murder; prosecutors relied in part on surveillance footage showing the final moments. A jury ultimately convicted Walker of second-degree murder, finding the killing was not premeditated, and sentenced him to 12 years plus three more years for firearm use. Derrell Jones pleaded guilty to shooting but not to killing Jackson.

If anyone has information about the events that led to Michael Jackson’s death or recalls the night of June 8, 2018, please come forward.
