Suspect charged in weekend shooting death of 22-year-old man in Montgomery

A suspect was arrested this morning in connection with a weekend homicide in Montgomery.

Ardarius Jackson, 23, is charged with capital murder in the Sunday slaying of 22-year-old Alonzo Jones, said Montgomery police Sgt. Tina McGriff.

Jones was fatally shot about 2:45 a.m. Sunday. Police were called to the hospital after the victim had shown up there and was later pronounced dead.

Investigators determined the shooting happened in the area of Eastern Boulevard at Monticello Drive. A motive has not been disclosed but charging documents against Jackson state that the charge is a capital crime because Jones was in a vehicle when he was shot.

Jackson is being held without bond in the Montgomery County Detention Facility.
