US marshals capture boy, 17, suspected in Iowa City mall mass shooting
May 12, 2026 / 2:04 PM CDT / AP

 
Federal authorities on Monday arrested a teenager in Georgia who is accused of opening fire last month near a popular University of Iowa nightlife district, injuring five people.

Iowa City officials announced in a news release that U.S. marshals captured Damarian M. Jones, 17, of Cedar Rapids, near Atlanta. He faces multiple charges, including five counts of attempted murder and five counts of assault. He was being held in the Clayton County Jail in Georgia pending a hearing on extradition to Iowa.

The release did not explain how the marshals tracked Jones down, exactly where he was arrested or whether he resisted them. It wasn't immediately clear whether he has an attorney.

Johnson County Attorney Rachel Zimmerman Smith, who would prosecute the case if Jones is moved back to Iowa, said she didn't have any details about the circumstances of the arrest and didn't know if Jones had an attorney. Messages left at the U.S. Marshals Office in Des Moines and the Iowa City Police Department weren't immediately returned.

See-BS chose to call him a boy, but they used his name which means he's considered a man.  Judging  by his name, I'd say he's probably black.  What is See-BS trying to hide? :pondering:

Just a harmless 17-year-old "boy".
Ummm... there it is YET AGAIN... "the hair"...

(when you see someone with hair like that... it means "trouble" walking...)

It probably has to do with state law. My former home state of Missouri, at least while I lived there, considered 17-year-olds as adults when it came to charging them with felonies, but certainly not for other purposes, e.g., buying beer.

In Iowa, apparently, a child age 16 or over who commits a “forcible felony” - which includes assault, murder, and certain other pretty major crimes - is automatically waived to adult court.
