LaKevia Jackson Young Thug Baby Mama Shot Dead At Atlanta Bowling Alley Thursday

COBB COUNTY, GA. (THECOUNT) — LaKevia Jackson, of East Point, Georgia, has been identified as the victim in a deadly Cobb County, Georgia bowling alley shooting Thursday.

Jackson, 31, the mother of rapper Young Thug‘s child, was shot dead Thursday night outside a bowling alley in Atlanta.

According to reports, Jackson was attending a birthday party at the Metro Fun Center on Metropolitan Parkway Southwest in Atlanta, when she was fatally shot in the parking lot area of the business after a dispute over a bowling ball Thursday night.

A man who is said to have argued with Jackson reportedly waited until Jackson was exiting the venue before opening fire on the young mother.

Atlanta police say they are now searching for a male suspect.

“This is truly an atrocity. A young lady has lost her life over a bowling ball,” Homicide Commander Lt. Ralph Woolfolk told WGCL. “We talk about conflict resolution time and time again and this is an escalated dispute, so we will work this case through the night and we will find the person responsible.”

The Atlanta Police Department is yet to release suspect information, but say they believe they’re close to making an arrest based on surveillance and ballistic evidence, as well as accounts from witnesses at the scene.

According to The Neighborhood Talk, Jackson is the mother of at least one of the rapper’s six children. So far, Thug, born Jeffery Lamar Williams, has not commented publicly.
