Police have a teenager in custody in connection with the shooting death of a bass fisherman at a Jackson motel.
Jackson police said in a news release that Shun Brown, 17, “confessed to being responsible for the death” of James “Jimmy” Johnson.
Investigators executed a search warrant Wednesday morning at a home on Delmar Street. Officers were seen carrying a red hooded sweatshirt from the house that was similar to one worn by a suspect in a surveillance photo released by the Jackson Police Department earlier this week.
Officers were also searching a wooded area Wednesday for the gun they believe was used to kill Johnson, 56, of Ganado, Texas. Johnson was staying at the Motel 6 off Interstate 55, where he was shot and killed Sunday night.

Brown is charged with capital murder, police said. He is expected to appear in court on Wednesday.
Johnson was to compete this week in the Bass Pro Shops Bassmaster Central Open tournament on the Ross Barnett Reservoir. Tournament organizers plan to honor him and his family during the event, which begins Thursday.

Blacks only consist of 13% of the population. 6.5% of those are male. Of that 6.5% population, those ages 16-30 are 2% of the population (the ages when most crimes occur).
According to the FBI, blacks commit 50% of the violent crimes in this country, including murder, rape, and armed robbery.
So, 2% of the population (like the two in this story) are committing 50% of the crime in a population of 333,000,000 people.
