wanted to know if he was still part of ‘Road Life’. Afterwards, they
attacked him with different weapons and eventually stabbed him many
times. Animashaun had been wounded in the stomach and heart.

attack was gang related. It was discovered that the deceased was a
member of a rival gang. There had been a history of violence between the
rival gangs. Forensic evidence gotten at the scene of the incident made
