Arrests made in Georgia shooting that killed 3
MACON. Ga. (AP) — A total of three people have now been arrested in connection with a triple homicide outside a Georgia bar in May, while authorities said a fourth man wanted for arrest killed himself on Thursday. The May 18 shooting in the parking lot outside the Midtown Daiquiri Bar and Grill in Macon, Georgia, killed three people and injured another six. Travis Keyshaun Glover, 17, of Macon, was arrested Saturday and charged as an adult with three counts of murder, the Bibb County Sheriff's Office said. Jarrius Terrell Curry, 28, of Macon, is charged with aggravated assault. Muchman Bond III, 25, has also been charged with three counts of murder. He was arrested in May on an unrelated charge in South Carolina. Sheriff's deputies found Christopher Valentine, 25, dead in a Macon house on Thursday. Investigators had been publicizing their search for Valentine, who was also wanted for three counts of murder. Bibb County Coroner Leon Jones told local news outlets that Valentine shot and killed himself. A judge denied bail to Curry and Glover on Monday, saying the cases would be sent to superior court for a further hearing. No court records exist yet for any of the three in Bibb County Superior Court, a clerk said Friday. The Associated Press was unable to determine whether any of the men have attorneys who can speak on their behalf. Curry and Glover are being held in jails in separate counties outside Macon. Jedarrius Meadows Jr., 28; Javonta Faulks, 32; and Javarsia Meadows, 24, were killed in the May 18 shooting. Six other people were injured. Bibb County Sheriff David Davis has suspended the liquor license of Midtown Daiquiri Bar & Grill, where the shootings took place, while Macon-Bibb County commissioners await a report on whether they should deny a permanent renewal of the license. Commissioners had debated revoking the bar's license in 2023 after Davis cited concerns about crime around the bar, but never finalized the revocation.

Suspect in mass shooting at Macon bar dies by suicide, coroner says. What we know
A suspect in a recent fatal mass shooting in Macon died by suicide Thursday evening, according to the Bibb County Coroner's Office. Christopher Clyde Valentine Jr., 25, was found dead at a house on Birch Street, in a neighborhood between Montpelier and Napier avenues, Coroner Leon Jones told The Telegraph. Valentine's death came a day after the Bibb County Sheriff's Office announced they were searching for him. He was allegedly connected to a shooting that left three dead and six injured on May 18. The shooting happened at Midtown Daiquiri Bar & Grill on Log Cabin Drive, according to a news release. On Thursday, a 911 call placed at 7:12 p.m. reported a man had died by suicide, a news release from the sheriff's office said. Emergency medical services responded to the home, Jones said, where the sheriff's office said deputies found Valentine 'unresponsive.' Chief Deputy Coroner Lonnie Miley pronounced him dead at the scene at 8 p.m. Valentine's family was notified of his death, deputies said. Deputies urged anyone with information related to Valentine's death to call the sheriff's office at 478-751-7500, or Macon Regional Crimestoppers at 1-877-68CRIME. Three suspects have been arrested in connection with the shooting, including Jarrius Terrell Curry, Muchman Bond III and a 17-year-old boy. Curry and the teen had their first appearance in front of a judge Monday. Curry was charged with five counts of aggravated assault. The teen was charged was three counts of murder. Bond will face three murder charges and was arrested in connection to an unrelated charge on May 30, in South Carolina. He was being held at the Richland County Detention Center in Columbia, and was expected to be transferred to the Bibb County Law Enforcement Center, though it was unclear if he was transferred by Thursday evening. Jedarrius Meadows Jr., 28; Javonta Faulks, 32; and Javarsia Meadows, 24, were killed and pronounced dead at the scene of the shooting, Jones said. Macon-Bibb County has since removed the bar's temporary liquor license.
