Aftermath of gas station shooting that leaves 3 men see more

The Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office ultimately filed a combined 18 felony charges against two suspects for the July 21, 2020, triple shooting. The legal resolution and specific details of that incident include:

The Legal Charges * The Shooter: Damario Lamar Jackson (then 20) was charged with 15 felonies. This included three counts of assault with intent to murder, three counts of assault with intent to do great bodily harm, one count of carrying a concealed weapon, one count of carrying a firearm with unlawful intent, and seven counts of felony firearm.

* The Driver: The 37-year-old getaway driver—who turned himself into the Detroit Police Department’s Sixth Precinct the day after the shooting—faced three felony counts of assault with intent to do great bodily harm.

The Incident Details

* Location: The shooting took place at around 6:00 p.m. at a BP gas station located on the 24700 block of West Seven Mile Road (just east of Grand River Avenue). * The Confrontation: The three victims (ages 20, 24, and 26) were sitting inside a silver Ford Fusion when they exchanged words with Jackson and the driver.

* The Shooting: After the argument turned physical, Jackson pulled out a handgun and fired multiple times directly into the vehicle, wounding all three occupants. * The Aftermath: The victims managed to drive themselves to a local hospital, where the 24-year-old was listed in critical condition while the other two were stabilized. The suspects sped off in the silver Kia minivan, prompting a public manhunt before police secured the arrests later that week.
