Three arrested in connection with St. Paul shooting
St. Paul Police arrested three men early Saturday morning in connection with the murder of a St. Paul man, the Star Tribune reported.
Jeffrey Lamont Logan, 44, was shot and killed outside the Attucks-Brooks American Legion Hall after stepping in to defend his cousin – the initial victim of a botched robbery.
Charles Walker Jr., the victim’s brother, told the Pioneer Press his brother was doing what he always did – looking out for his friends and family.
“He watched out for everybody,� Walker said.
Walker told the Pioneer Press his brother “didn’t deserve to die the way he did,� and reiterated his comments to the Star Tribune.
"I know his death is going to impact this community pretty big," Walker said. "When a nice person goes out with his friends and this happens to him, it's not right.�
Police responded to the scene around 1 a.m. Saturday morning when they found Logan lying shot in an alley near the club at 976 Concordia Ave. After a brief chase, authorities apprehended three males, who await possible murder charges in Ramsey County jail.
The Pioneer Press listed the three suspects as Ronald Hill, 20, of West St. Paul; Elston Marc Williamson, 28, or St. Paul; and Henry Marcello Reed, 27, of St.Paul.
