A fifth person has been charged in the robbery shooting death of a 32-year-old man who was killed just 24 hours after a mass shooting outside a Birmingham lounge.
Zachary Alexander Holmes, 31, of Birmingham, is charged with capital murder in the Sept. 22 killing of Jamarcus McIntyre, according to court records made public Friday.
He is also charged with drug trafficking. Charging documents state he was in possession of more than a kilogram of marijuana on that Sunday.
Holmes was initially arrested in Los Angeles and has since been returned to Alabama.
Also charged in McIntyre’s death are Ny’Quan Cordae Lollar, 22, Larry Denzel Rollins, Jr., 31, Demarco Nakia Beck Jr., 29, and Damien Laron McDaniel III, 22.
McDaniel is also charged in the mass shooting outside Hush lounge, and in the killing of a woman at another lounge that happened two days before the Southside massacre.
Police say all three homicide cases could be linked but they have not publicly disclosed what connected the deaths.
Lollar is also charged with three counts of attempted murder, drug trafficking including fentanyl, and possession of marijuana.
Rollins, previously acquitted in an unrelated homicide, is also charged with trafficking heroin.
McIntyre died in a hail of gunfire that Sunday night in the 700 block of 81st Place South. Two other people were also wounded, and third escaped injury.
His killing was captured on home surveillance video.
The chilling footage showed McIntyre, and three others, exit a home and walk toward a car on the street. At least three suspects then jumped out of a car parked across the street and gunned down McIntyre, taking his backpack.
Authorities have not said what was in that backpack.
