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.
