On Monday, September 15, 2025, officers responded to the 2100 block of Wilkins Street, where they found an adult male in the roadway with a gunshot wound. Kendall was at the scene attempting to render medical aid to the victim.
He was initially arrested for unlawful carrying of a handgun. However, further investigation led detectives to identify Kendall as the shooter.
An arrest warrant was issued on October 3rd, charging Kendall with aggravated battery, intimidation, pointing a firearm, and unlawful possession of a firearm by a domestic batterer. He was taken into custody on Sunday, October 5.
Murder case arrest
Detectives located 23-year-old Dasia Jackson, who had an active murder warrant for her alleged role in the September 4th murder of 24-year-old Ronnie Ameen.
