Fatal Richmond shooting not classified as a murder 

Over the weekend 25-year-old Jovante Jackson was shot to death off Ivymount Road in South Richmond.

Jackson was shot at about 4:30 a.m. Sunday along the 1400 block of Ivymount Road in the Elkhardt neighborhood of South Richmond.

Insider sources Burkett it hasn't been classified a murder because it is believed that Jackson was actually trying to a rob a man, when that man with a conceal carry permit, fired back and killed Jackson.

“Officers responded and located Jackson, who was suffering from an apparent gunshot wound, lying in the parking lot,” a Richmond Police spokesperson said. “He was transported to a local hospital for treatment where he later succumbed to his injuries.”

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call Major Crimes Detective Kevin Hughes at 804-646-3917 or contact Crime Stoppers at 804-780-1000.

There was also a shooting Monday afternoon at the CVS drug store in the 700 block of Walmsley Blvd. There is now word on the condition of the victim at this time.

Missing Keeshae Jacobs update

You may recall Keeshae Jacobs vanished on a Monday night six weeks ago.

Neither her debit card nor her cell phone has been used since. Police say she was last seen in the Chimborazo Park area  in Church Hill and while police haven't said it, her mother suspects foul play.

“Cell phone, email, bank card, her Facebook, none of it has been used, nothing,” said Toni Jacobs. “It's like she has dropped off the face of the earth. Nobody has heard from her and that's not like her.”

If you have criminal activity for Burkett to look into, snap some pictures or shoot video andsend it to him on his Facebook page.
