‘Black Lives Matter’ Rioter Charged With Murder in N.C. Home Invasion
Posted on | December 4, 2020 | 4 Comments
On June 2, police in Charlotte, North Carolina, used tear gas to disperse a “Black Lives Matter” protest that turned into a riot:
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department says what started as “a lawful protest” took a turn shortly before 9 p.m., when CMPD says several officers became targets for protesters “bent on turning a lawful demonstration into a riot.”
In the span of around four hours, CMPD says there were at least 18 incidents where protesters threw objects at officers, nine dispersal orders were issued, 16 protesters were arrested, and three guns ā including one assault rifle ā were found.
Among those arrested June 2 was Jonathan Elijah Jones, 19, charged with assaulting a police officer and other offenses. Three months after that arrest, Jones was arrested again on Sept. 5 in Gastonia, charged with violating a domestic violence protective order, carrying a concealed weapon, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, and other offenses. You might have thought that two arrests in the span of three months would be enough to put Jones behind bars for a long time, but he was soon back on the streets, and his next arrest was for murder:
Four people have been arrested after a person died in a shooting during a breaking and entering in Cramerton Monday morning.
Brenton Edward McCaskill, from Clover, was shot and killed at a home on Fifteenth Avenue
Jonathan Elijah Jones and Ramon Luis Lopex Jr. have been charged with first-degree murder, first-degree burglary and felony conspiracy. They are both in the Gaston County Jail with their bond on hold.
Tyler Andrew Reno and Tyler Nathaniel Justice Leonhardt have been charged with accessory to murder after the fact. They are in the Gaston County Jail until a $500,000 bond.
Police said they responded to a possible breaking and entering in progress in the 400 block of Fifteenth Street in Cramerton just before 6 a.m. Monday.
Police found a person who had been shot. That person , who was identified as McCaskill, was taken to the hospital where he died, according to police.
The victim died defending his family from the invaders. “Brenton McCaskill is a hero,” his girlfriend Heidi McQueen told WCNC-TV. “He lived his life a hero, and he died a hero. He died protecting us.”
