Port Allen Football Shooting Suspect Arrested – School System to Heighten Security Measures

According to The Advocate, Jarrettin Ranaud Jackson II, an 18-year-old, was arrested on Monday for his involvement in the Port Allen Football Shooting, a fatal incident that occurred during the Port Allen-Brusly High School football game on the preceding Friday. The West Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office confirmed Jackson’s arrest and stated that he has been charged with second-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder. Unfortunately, no additional details are currently available.

During the Port Allen Football Shooting at halftime, Ja’Kobe Queen, a 16-year-old Brusly High School student, and Brasia Davis, a 28-year-old Port Allen resident, were both shot. Both victims were transported to the hospital, but tragically, Ja’Kobe Queen later succumbed to his injuries. In an update on her Facebook account, Brasia Davis mentioned that she was shot in the arm but assured that she was okay.

The relationship between Ja’Kobe Queen, Brasia Davis, and Jarrettin Ranaud Jackson II remains unclear. Sgt. Landon Groger from the Sheriff’s Office mentioned that there had been a fight between Ja’Kobe Queen and another man at the game, and witnesses reported that the Port Allen Football Shooting took place near the concession stand. However, it is uncertain whether a weapon has been recovered in connection with the incident.
