Six people killed in Mississippi rampage, including 7-year-old girl. Suspect charged with murder
 
By Associated Press - Saturday, January 10, 2026

WEST POINT, Miss. — A 24-year-old Mississippi man killed six people - his father, brother, uncle, 7-year-old cousin, a church pastor and the pastor’s brother - at three locations during a Friday night rampage in a rural area, authorities said.

Daricka M. Moore was arrested at a police roadblock in Cedarbluff just before midnight after dozens of local, state and federal officers flooded the northeast Mississippi area.

Moore was being held without bail Saturday at the Clay County jail in West Point on murder charges and ahead of an expected initial appearance Monday before a judge.

Clay County District Attorney Scott Colom, who said he expects to pursue the death penalty, told The Associated Press that Moore would likely be appointed a public defender at that time.

I'm surprised the AP didn't make note that the shooter wasn't a Somali! :shrug:

Been to and quickly thru West Point MS many times.  Not exactly the crown jewel of MS.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
