Court documents describe the crime scene:
A
witness, referred to as "a concerned citizen," informed investigators
that he called 911 after hearing approximately 10 gunshots within the
hotel complex. While searching for evidence of the shooting, officers
were alerted to a Chevrolet Tahoe on fire in a nearby wooded area,
according to records.
The Memphis Fire Department arrived to
extinguish the vehicle fire. When firefighters opened the rear hatch
door of the Tahoe, they, along with police officers, discovered a "badly
burned body" in the driver's seat, records state.
The victim was pronounced dead at the scene.
15
spent shell casings were recovered from the crime scene. Investigators
obtained surveillance footage capturing the moments before and after the
deadly shooting.
The footage shows the Tahoe entering the
parking lot of Memphis Extended Stay, followed by a blue Chevrolet
Impala pulling in front of it, blocking the path. A man, believed to be
Jones, exited the Impala, pointed two handguns at the Tahoe, and opened
fire, according to court records.
The driver of the Tahoe "quickly" reversed and sped away, but Jones allegedly continued to fire shots as the vehicle drove off.
Jones
reportedly re-entered the Impala and pursued the Tahoe until it crashed
in the wooded area near Tag Truck Center, just a block from the hotel.
Surveillance footage then shows Jones walking away from the crash and
getting into the front seat of a white sedan, which then sped away,

Michael DeHaan, 33, was fatally shot in Kansas City, MO.
Lorenzo C. Johnson, 31, was arrested.
Johnson was captured on security footage committing the crime at a Kansas City gas station.
The
surveillance footage showed that just after 8:45 p.m. on Wednesday,
August 21, Deehan arrived at the BP gas station in his red Nissan Versa
and parked at the pump.
A gold Lincoln Town Car, which had been
involved in multiple armed robberies earlier that evening, also entered
the parking lot. Johnson was allegedly inside the vehicle during those
robberies.
The footage captured Johnson exiting the Town Car and
engaging in a physical altercation with Deehan before entering the
victim’s car. Deehan attempted to hit Johnson, but Johnson exited the
vehicle again. This time, as Deehan backed away, Johnson pointed a
firearm and shot him in the head.
Before leaving the scene in
Deehan’s vehicle, Johnson was seen on the footage backing over Deehan’s
body and speeding away. The stolen vehicle was later spotted parked
approximately nine blocks from the gas station.
Officers pursued
Johnson, who eventually lost control of the vehicle and crashed. A white
female occupant fled on foot while Johnson reached for his firearm. A
marked patrol vehicle then pushed the Nissan to ensure Johnson’s safe
arrest.
However, the patrol vehicle was not properly secured in
park, causing it to hit the Nissan again, deploying the airbags. This
allowed Johnson to regain control of the stolen vehicle, drive off the
curb, and head north. He led police on a chase across the city before
the vehicle became immobilized on a median about a mile from where he
was first seen.
Johnson fled on foot, with officers continuing to
pursue him in their patrol vehicles. He was finally arrested just after
11 p.m. [source]

Eighteen-year-old Isaac Arndt is charged with second-degree murder.
Arndt confessed to stabbing the child 13 times.
During
questioning, Arndt identified an area on a map that matched the
location where Walker’s body was later discovered. He eventually
admitted that he and Walker had been in a romantic relationship for
several months, which had recently ended.
Arndt stated that after
Walker began hitting and kicking him, he pulled a knife from his pocket
and began to "slash" at her, stabbing her approximately 13 times.
He
further confessed to investigators that after stabbing Walker multiple
times, he cut her throat, gave her a hug, stabbed her one more time in
the back, and then dragged her body to the river before fleeing the
scene.
Arndt admitted that he then went to his apartment in
Fargo, where he cleaned up and washed his bloodstained clothing. A
search warrant executed at Arndt’s residence led to the discovery of
socks and a towel with red stains in a kitchen cupboard.
The
complaint states that security footage captured Arndt on a motorized
scooter heading toward the pedestrian bridge to Fargo. Along the way, he
appeared to be discarding items in the area where Walker’s phone was
later found.
A review of Walker’s phone revealed conversations agreeing to meet Arndt at Gooseberry Park.
If convicted, Arndt could face up to 40 years in prison.

Kansas
City police described the shooting as avoidable and Platte County

crosswalk where Barnett was driving. Johnson is seen extending his arm
toward Barnett’s vehicle.

he began walking toward the Walmart entrance. Johnson then drove in
Barnett's direction, got out of his vehicle, and when Barnett approached
him, Johnson allegedly shot Barnett once and left the scene.

after work, in a Walmart parking lot, you can imagine this place was
full. There could have been a worst-case scenario on top of what is
already a tragic scene. So, for that, we’re fortunate. These things are
avoidable, a lot of this is preventable. I don’t know many things that
are worth pulling out a firearm over, ending someone’s life, or risking
getting your life ended.”

The
four suspects are accused of participating in an armed robbery at
Turnkey Park in Kent. According to court documents, one of the suspects
used an OfferUp account to meet with a group of friends who were selling
camera equipment. When they met, one suspect emerged with a gun and
robbed the 15-year-old carrying the equipment.
When 13-year-old
Matthiew Stavkovy attempted to leave the park on an ATV with his sister,
prosecutors say one of the suspects shot him, and the group chased
after them as they fled. Stavkovy passed out on the ATV and died shortly
after. He was described as a standout student, devoted to his family
and faith.
"They had a getaway driver. They arrived early to
stage themselves before the victims’ arrival. Despite the defendants’
young ages, this shows a surprising amount of planning and forethought,"
prosecutors stated.
Based on statements from other suspects and
the possession of the modified handgun, it is believed that 17-year-old
Marsais Dunmore was the one who shot and killed Stavkovy. [source]
