Fourth suspect in custody following deadly shooting in Fulton
CALLAWAY COUNTY, Mo. (KMIZ)
All four suspects are now in custody following a deadly shooting in Fulton Tuesday afternoon.
Emmanuel Brown, Teaon Logan and Quiara Walton, 23, of Fulton all appeared on the Callaway County inmate roster Thursday morning. All three are charged with first-degree murder for the shooting death of Jakien O. Braggs, 19, of Fulton, according to Callaway County Prosecutor Benjamin Miller.
A juvenile was taken into custody Wednesday in Boone County.
No court hearings have been set.
Braggs was found dead on Kathy Street in Fulton Tuesday afternoon. Neighbors told ABC 17 News they saw him in the street with gunshot wounds, and at least one person saw him get shot.
Court documents say police received a screenshot of Walton’s Snapchat account, which apparently showed two messages sent to Braggs at 12:55 p.m., with one requesting he show up to a Kathy Street residence.
While speaking with police, a witness allegedly stated that Walton called them to say Braggs was dead, the statement says. Court documents say Walton “lured” Braggs to the area. Braggs was apparently driving to the residence and was “ambushed while driving,” the statement says.
A witness stated in court documents that "Suspect 1," Logan and the juvenile were waiting behind a vehicle while Braggs drove down the street. Those three then opened fire, according to the statement.
Braggs then got out of the vehicle and returned fire before he was shot to death, the statement says. Police found a gun and a live round near Braggs’ body, as well as 24 spent shell casings in the area, the statement says.
One of the probable cause statements says a witness told police that "Suspect 1" was adamant about wanting to shoot Braggs in the head three times. The statement also says Braggs' gun jammed during the exchange of gunfire.
