Figure seen running near scene of unsolved New Jersey councilwoman shooting
Just minutes after Sayreville police received a 911 call reporting a shooting, a shadowy figure appeared running on surveillance video nearby.
A 17-year-old Tennessee high school student was fatally shot on Feb. 10 while driving home from a basketball game with friends.
Christine Michael reportedly had a 4.0 GPA and was class president at Haywood High School in Brownsville — about an hour from Memphis, FOX 13 reported, citing Michael's family members.
Haywood County officials have arrested and charged Kevion Davis, 18, and Bishop Owens, 16, with first-degree murder in connection with the incident. They are both being held without bond, and authorities are seeking three additional charges against each individual.
"The incident that took the life of Christine Michael Friday night will forever change the lives of a great many people," Haywood Sheriff Billy Garrett Jr. said in a Feb. 12 Facebook post. "Our heartfelt condolences go out to the Michael family during this extremely difficult time, and we want to support and uplift them as they work through the pain that this tragedy has brought to their family."
