Metro police determined that Jackson pursued a vehicle after witnessing the occupants breaking into his car outside The End Zone restaurant and bar on Old Hickory Boulevard. Shots were fired from the suspect's vehicle while on the entrance ramp to I-40, which struck Jackson.
Williams was arrested on Rosa L Parks Boulevard in Nashville by Metro police TITANS detectives. Redmond fled from a traffic stop and ran into the woods along I-24 in Robertson County, where he was later caught by a Metro police K9 unit.
The charges for Williams and Redmond have not yet been listed by Metro police.
On August 1, Jonathan Brewington, Jr., 20, and Hannah Crague, 34, were both arrested by Metro police in connection with Jackson's death and later admitted to being in the vehicle the shots were fired from. Both were being held without bond at the time of their arrest.

Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.
Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.
Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
