Towson-Rostered Player and Second Man Charged in Milford Mill Carjacking and Shooting

Baltimore County police say charging documents describe a prearranged meeting that turned into an armed takeover in which the victim was shot and the stolen car was later found in Baltimore City.

Overview

  • Police have charged 19-year-old Cordell Jefferson and 20-year-old Garrin Davis Jr. with counts that include first-degree attempted murder, armed carjacking, and assault, and both are being held without bond.
  • Charging documents allege a witness arranged a meeting, a white SUV arrived, two armed suspects forced their way into the victim’s car, one suspect pulled the victim out, and the other shot him as he tried to re-enter the vehicle.
  • Investigators recovered the victim’s vehicle in Baltimore City and prosecutors presented the case at a bond hearing where multiple friends, family and former teammates attended in support of the defendants.
  • Towson University confirmed Jefferson was on last season’s football roster while defense lawyers say the charging documents give an incomplete account and suggest the parties involved knew each other.
  • Neighbors say the carjacking has raised local alarm and prompted heavier police patrols in the Milford Mill area, a development that could shape community safety and policing discussions as the case moves toward prosecution.
