The young men got out of the Explorer and fought Steward and his friend. After two shots rang out, the men got back into the Explorer and headed north on Fairground Street, Bishop said.

Steward, who was shot twice in the head, was taken off life support the following morning, said his mother, Cordelia Gober.
