Overview

• Edward Tiki Arrington, 45, also known as Troy Mike Payton, is in custody and due in Hennepin County court on Monday after a Sept. 4 pursuit ended in a deadly crash.
• Prosecutors say he carjacked a black Volkswagen Passat at gunpoint, drove against traffic, ran a red light at Penn Avenue North and Olson Memorial Boulevard, and struck a Ford Focus at high speed.
• The collision killed Marisa Ardys Casebolt, 25, and Liberty Borg, 25, and seriously injured a 6-year-old boy described as one victim’s son, who suffered bilateral femur fractures and a traumatic brain injury.
• Federal charges include carjacking and discharging a firearm during a crime of violence, which carry a mandatory minimum of 25 years and up to life in prison, and carjacking resulting in death is death-penalty eligible.
• Hennepin County has filed three felony counts of fleeing a police officer resulting in death, and officials, including the U.S. Attorney and Minneapolis police chief, describe Arrington as a career criminal with an extensive record.
