Charges have been dropped against one of the three people accused in the deadly shooting of a Fulton teenager in July.
Callaway County prosecutor Sandra Colhour confirmed Thursday that charges were dropped against Emmanuel Brown of Holts Summit.
Colhour said in an email that the charges were dropped around April 15 due to “information gathered in the course of the ongoing investigation.” His case was set to go to trial on May 13.
Brown was facing charges of first-degree accessory to murder and armed criminal action. He was one of three people charged in the death of Jakiem Braggs, 19, on July 16.
The cases against Mitchell Henderson Jr. and Quiara Walton remain open and active. Both are charged with first-degree murder. Henderson is also charged with illegal gun possession and armed criminal action.
Fulton police responded to a report of a shooting in the 1200 block of Kathy Street on July 16 and found Braggs shot in the street.
Four people were originally arrested and charged for the shooting, but charges were dropped against one of them several days after the shooting. Police said investigators learned the initial reports about that person were not accurate and they were not involved in the shooting.
Court documents say Walton “lured” Braggs to the area. Braggs was driving to the residence and was “ambushed while driving,” the statement says.
