According to the probable cause statement, the incident occurred when Hargrove, a passenger in a vehicle, arrived at the GoGo Mart on Chamber Road. The vehicle also contained the driver's mother, who pointed out the victim's car, alleging that the victim had attempted to assault her several days earlier.
Hargrove reportedly responded, "I'll take care of this." As the victim exited the store, Hargrove allegedly opened fire, resulting in the victim's death. Both the driver and the mother identified Hargrove as the shooter.
