Maplewood shooting: St. Paul man fired on car while kids cowered nearby, charges say
A man with a history of gun convictions was charged Friday with attempted murder, accused of opening fire in Maplewood while two juveniles cowered in fear nearby. Officers responded to an apartment building parking lot at Larpenteur Avenue and McMenemy Street about 5:55 p.m. on April 16. A child had just exited a bus and was waiting to be buzzed into an apartment building when the shooting happened. Surveillance video showed a Chevrolet Malibu entered the lot and drove past a gold vehicle. The shooter got out of the Chevrolet, pulled out a handgun and fired three volleys at the other vehicle. Police found 18 spent casings in the parking lot. 'The volleys were in rapid succession and the video's audio suggests that there was a trigger activator on the handgun making it fully automatic,' the complaint said. Video also showed the child from the bus and another juvenile were in fear as they tried to get into the building. A passenger from the gold sedan got into the driver's seat, drove to Regions Hospital and dropped off a 22-year-old man. The man was treated for gunshot wounds to his left shoulder and left leg. He did not want to talk to police, the complaint said. After law enforcement identified the license plate on the Chevrolet, police pulled over the vehicle on April 22 in Minneapolis. They found Muhnee Jaleel Bailey, 24, of St. Paul, was driving. Bailey was on release from the Federal Bureau of Prisons to a halfway house in Minneapolis, according to the complaint. He pleaded guilty in March 2023 to a federal charge of possession of a firearm as felon. On the day of the shooting, Bailey returned to the house wearing clothes that matched the shooter's, the complaint said of surveillance footage. He was wearing a sweatshirt that said, 'In Glock We Trust.' Police learned that Bailey and a woman resided in St. Paul, and they carried out a search warrant at the residence on Aurora Avenue near Central Village Park.

The woman told police that she has a permit to carry and owns a handgun; she said she wasn't aware of other firearms in the bedroom. Police arrested Bailey on Wednesday. The Ramsey County Attorney's Office charged him with second-degree intentional attempted murder (not premediated), drive-by shooting and four counts of possession of a firearm or ammunition by a person prohibited due to a conviction for a crime of violence. In addition to the federal case, Bailey has been convicted of possession of a pistol without a permit, possession of a trigger activator, drive-by shooting and fleeing police in a vehicle, the complaint said.

18-year-old gets in fatal crash hours after high school graduation, VA school says
An 18-year-old walked across the stage at his high school graduation just hours before he was involved in a fatal crash in Virginia, officials said. Jemeire Hite was 'full of promise and pride' on May 24, the day he graduated high school, Lunenburg County Public Schools Superintendent Sharon Stanislas said in a statement. But shortly before 5 p.m. that same day, the newly-minted Central High School graduate was a passenger in a Chevrolet Malibu when the 23-year-old driver veered off the side of the road, went into an embankment and hit a tree, according to Virginia State Police. The driver and two other passengers were seriously injured, and Hite died of his injuries at a hospital on May 28, police said. No one in the car was wearing a seatbelt, and the driver was charged with reckless driving, according to police. Hite's mother took to social media to clarify that the crash was an accident, and she doesn't blame the driver, who she says was close with her son. She told WTVR her son lived 'an amazing life and left an amazing mark on everyone he came in contact (with).' The investigation into the Campbell County crash is ongoing, state police said. Lunenburg County is in southern Virginia, about an 80-mile drive southwest from Richmond.

A judge can issue a temporary order of protection if someone is believed to be in immediate danger. Unlike a restraining order, an order of protection carries criminal penalties for violation. The probable cause statement says Freeman's cousin told investigators that she was on a FaceTime call with Freeman, who said she was planning to meet up with her ex-boyfriend, Turner, on Tuesday, May 13. Freeman allegedly told her cousin that Turner had convinced her to meet with him because he had a birthday present for her. About an hour and a half after the first FaceTime call, the cousin said she called Freeman again. According to the probable cause statement, the cousin told investigators that Freeman appeared to be crying on the second FaceTime call. Freeman told her cousin that she was still with Turner and that she would have to call her back. But she never did. Turner is currently being held without bond in the Jackson County Detention Center.

Woman killed in two-vehicle crash involving Hummer in Fresno County, CHP says
A woman is dead Saturday after a two-vehicle collision in Fresno County. It happened at noon as officers with the California Highway Patrol responded to the scene at the intersection of Highway 180 and Del Ray Avenue. CHP said a 38-year-old woman was driving a white Chevrolet Malibu northbound on Del Rey Avenue and entered the westbound lanes of Highway 180, while a 72-year-old man was traveling westbound on 180 in a Hummer H2 within the No. 2 lane. The Chevrolet entered the intersection and traveled directly into the path of the Hummer, resulting in a broadside collision, CHP said. The force caused the Chevrolet to swerve in a northwest direction, where it struck the right side mirror of a parked Sanger Police Department BMW motorcycle, which was stationary on the northwest corner of Del Rey Avenue and 180. The officer, who was monitoring traffic at the time, was not injured. The driver of the Chevrolet was pronounced dead. The driver of the Hummer sustained minor injuries and was not taken to a hospital. It is unknown if alcohol or drugs were a factor in the collision.
