The suspect was identified and tracked by the U.S. Marshals to a location in the 2900 block of Toledo Avenue in Lorain, according to Brian Fitzgibbon with the U.S. Marshals Service, who spoke at the news conference. The man, identified as Jaylon Jennings, 25, was taken into custody without incident, Fitzgibbon said. Marshals are executing a search warrant for further materials in the crime. Cleveland Police said the gun used has not yet been recovered.
After he retrieved the gun, Jennings deliberately approached the individuals and fired shots in their direction, the warrant states. The nine victims were struck by gunfire, causing serious physical harm.According to a preliminary investigation at the scene, as the bars let out on W. 6th Street, an unknown person, later alleged to be Jennings, shot into a group of people standing outside before fleeing.
The victims were taken to the MetroHealth Medical Center. There are no life-threatening injuries. Of the victims, seven are men ranging in age from their early 20s to late 30s, and two are women in their early 20s, according to officials. On Tuesday, MetroHealth confirmed that a group of individuals rushed into the hospital hours after the shooting, apparently trying to get to one of the shooting victims. They were stopped by MetroHealth Police officers and fled from the building.
