Suspect Arrested In Nine Mile Road Shooting Death
January 27, 2017
A suspect has been arrested into connection with a January 6 shooting death off East Nine Mile Road.
Shaquille Kushun Jordan was charged with the homicide of Allen Ray Elliott. Elliott died from a gunshot wound to the head after what the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office described as a drug deal gone bad he was found face down in the parking lot of an apartment complex behind Vannoy’s Tires.
Authorities say the suspect and his girlfriend made up a story about being carjacked in order to create an alibi for the crime.
Jordan is being held without bond in the Escambia County Jail.
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office is still looking for another unknown suspect in this case. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (850) 433-STOP or the ECSO at (850) 436-9620.

Hmm…sad. I hope this & other incidents in this area doesn’t indicate the direction it’s headed in. Has been a fairly decent area in the past. Now, 9 Murder Road, err, I mean 9 Mile Road seems to have gotten a reputation for violence & hazardous traffic conditions, Popeyes, the Carmike, etc.
Here’s hoping for better days to come.
