Man Executed Victim Over Wearing Suspicious Hoodie

Minnesota: Because it was pleasant outside, the man in Minnesota apparently got suspicious of another man wearing a sweatshirt, pulled a revolver from his fanny pack, and executed the man. Jason Jerrell Herron IV, better known as William Howard Sanders IV, is accused of second-degree murder in the passing of De’Jaun Marquise Michael Hall, a 24-year-old.

All About The Murder

On September 3, at around 7 p.m., an incident took place in Minneapolis near the intersection of 1st Avenue South and East 19th Street. When Sanders and Hall got into a fight, there were perhaps ten others in the group. A likely cause arrest affidavit states that security footage shows the shooting. It depicts Hall and Sanders, both 38, fighting. After that, Sanders takes something from his fanny pack that is slung over his shoulder and appears to be a rifle. Hall takes off, dodging a parked car in the process.

Suspects Claim About The Murder

Hall is said to have fallen to the ground after Sanders allegedly followed the victim around the automobile before shooting him in the rear. Sanders was taken into custody by police on Thursday at a hotel. He is currently being held without bond at the Hennepin County Jail. Sanders is said to have acknowledged to shooting Hall after Miranda. Sanders first claimed that he was high on PCP and was not sure of his thoughts. Subsequently, he supposedly stated that Sanders was jeopardizing him and his family, so he shot Hall in self-defense.

Reason Of Suspicion

Lastly, he claimed that even though he didn’t see anyone else carrying a pistol, the fact that Hall was dressed in a hooded sweatshirt on a pleasant day made him suspicious. According to the affidavit, Sanders’ car, which had a 9 mm handgun and the fanny pack seen in the video, was also found by detectives. Hall was shot three times, according to the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office, which declared the death to be a homicide. Given that the area is known to be troublesome, Minneapolis police Chief Brian O’Hara voiced disappointment over the incident.
