Overview
- Shawn Walker, 24, was arrested in the Oct. 8 Roxbury shooting and faces assault and multiple gun charges, with a probation-related judge ordering him held without bail and a Dec. 12 hearing set.
- He is slated for arraignment in Roxbury District Court on the shooting charges following a separate Superior Court appearance on probation violations.
- Prosecutors say video shows Walker exiting a Hyundai, running across the street, and firing about 20 rounds as the intended target sought cover inside the restaurant.
- A woman walking with her boyfriend was struck in the spine and prosecutors say her prognosis is paralysis from the waist down; she has since spoken publicly about her injuries.
- Investigators say they tracked Walker using surveillance footage, found his alleged fingerprints on a car left nearby, and noted social media posts showing him with a distinctive white firearm magazine; a previously arrested co-defendant, Devante Stinson, is accused of driving.
