A 20-year-old charged in the weekend triple homicide in Bessemer was already out on bond in the shooting death of a 15-year-old girl two years ago.

Raukeem Cunningham, of Lipscomb, is charged with capital murder in the Friday night slayings of Christopher Eddins, 25, Ronald Dixon Jr., 20 and Wesley Fowler, 40.

The shooting happened shortly after 11:30 p.m. Friday at the Citgo at 200 Fourth Avenue.

All three victims were pronounced dead on the scene. A motive has not been disclosed.

Three more men were shot at the same gas station Monday night during a small vigil being held for the victims.

Bessemer police Chief Michael Wood said he believes the Monday shooting was linked to the triple homicide.

“It’s definitely related to Friday night,’’ Wood said, “and if I had to guess it’s because we … put capital murder warrants on their boy.”

Jefferson County Circuit Judge David Carpenter on Monday revoked Cunningham’s bond on the 2022 shooting case, according to court records made public Tuesday.

The judge’s order marks the second time Cunningham’s bond has been revoked in that case.

Cunningham is charged with manslaughter in the February 2022 shooting death of Janiya Simmons, who was a freshman at Wenonah High School when she was killed.

Cunningham, who was then a senior at McAdory High School, was friends with Janiya and police said at the time that it appeared they were playing with the gun when it discharged and struck Janiyah in the chest.

The shooting happened at the home of the suspect’s family member.

Janiya was taken to UAB Hospital where she was pronounced dead at 9:34 p.m.

Police at the time said Cunningham stayed on the scene and was fully cooperating with investigators.

He was released from the Jefferson County Jail on Feb. 15, 2022.

Jefferson County Bessemer Cutoff District Attorney’s Office prosecutors sought in 2023 to revoke Cunningham’s bond on the manslaughter charge for violation of his bond conditions.

The bond was temporarily revoked but later reinstated after a hearing.

Prosecutors said after his release on bond, Cunningham was arrested in Leeds on a charge of carrying a concealed weapon, and in Homewood for carrying a concealed weapon, resisting arrest, attempting to elude and possession of drug paraphernalia.

He pleaded guilty in both cases, court records show.

His attorney in the manslaughter case, Emory Anthony, said he did not have a comment at this time.

Cunningham was booked into the Jefferson County Jail on the new capital murder charge at 1:30 p.m. Monday. He made his initial court appearance on Tuesday.
