According to law enforcement, the incident began with an exchange on Facebook, which allegedly led to Watkins and Ramsey using firearms to shoot the victims, an 18-year-old man who died and an 18-year-old woman who sustained severe injuries.
Reportedly, Watkins posted a profile picture of himself and a young lady on Facebook, which was allegedly laughed at by the victim.

This resulted in Watkins calling out the victim and threatening him with violence. The conversation continued, and ultimately, Watkins and Ramsey met up with the victim in a park to fight, leading to the shooting.
The incident resulted in both Watkins and Ramsey being charged with multiple counts of serious crimes, including first-degree murder, assault, and the unlawful use of a weapon.
The identities of the victims have not been released by law enforcement at this time. It is essential to remember that social media interactions should never escalate to violence, and law enforcement will take all necessary steps to ensure that justice is served in this case.
