Update: Murder Charges Will Not Be Filed in Deadly Shooting of Store Clerk in Antioch
According to Ashley Crandell, Antioch Police PIO, said during a robbery, James Williams, the clerk, was shot and killed.
Crandell explained during their investigation, they learned Williams chased after the suspects exiting the store and into the parking lot where he fired shots at both suspects. He did hit one of the suspects, striking Ronald Jackson Jr in the leg who then returned fire striking Williams in the chest and in the leg. Williams was pronounced deceased at the scene.
Jackson showed up at a house on Seville Circle where a resident advised someone had been shot there. Police said Jackson was transported to a local hospital and is in stable condition. The second suspect is not in custody nor has been identified.
When asked why no homicide or murder charges, Crandell stated they are not commenting on that.
“We presented this case to the District Attorney’s office and they chose to file the robbery, the firearm enhancement and possession of stolen property,” said Crandell who said the suspect is known to Antioch Police but did not go into details of prior contacts. — Full Story + Video

The Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office declined to file murder charges in this case solely on a legal and factual determination — and not an elective, optional, or discretionary one. It was based upon an established law that clearly states a person cannot pursue another to retrieve stolen property once the threat of bodily injury or harm to the victim has subsided. — Full Statement – click here
