Jaquarious Fenn, 23, a male from Killeen, Texas, died on September 23, 2025, after a shooting inside his home on the 200 block of Laura Drive. Officers were dispatched around 1:42 a.m. and found him deceased from a gunshot wound inside the residence. Investigators said the preliminary evidence showed he was inside with the shooter when gunfire erupted and that the assailant fled immediately afterward.
Detectives later identified the suspected gunman as Yannie Kelvin Chishimba.
The following day, the Texas Department of Public Safety found a vehicle stopped on the shoulder of U.S. Highway 190 in Lampasas County and discovered Chishimba dead inside. After further investigation, authorities ruled his death a suicide, effectively ending the manhunt that began with the killing on Laura Drive.
Public records and memorial notices confirmed the victim's full name as Jaquarious Lasaveoun Damariyah Fenn and recorded the date of death as Tuesday, September 23, 2025, tying his life in Killeen to roots in Cordele, Georgia. Community and gun-violence databases also logged the case as a fatal shooting in Killeen on that date.
Police have not announced any additional suspects or arrests beyond naming Chishimba and reporting his death. Officials indicated no further information would be released as the investigation concluded, leaving the narrative of the case as an in-home shooting, a suspect's flight, and a suicide discovered the next day.
