Keyton Nicole Sparks

A Fairfield woman has been charged with murder in the death of a man who was carjacked, beaten and left for dead before an off-duty officer ran over him.

Birmingham police have arrested Keyton Nicole Sparks. She is 32 and charged with murder in the June 19 death of 40-year-old Jerand Deon Jackson.

The bizarre chain of events began about 4 a.m. that Wednesday on Third Avenue North between 10th and 11 Streets. Birmingham police say Jackson was the driver of a Chevrolet Camaro that struck a motorcyclist. After the initial crash, a second car drove up and the people inside that car pulled Jackson out of his vehicle, assaulted him, and left him in the roadway. One of the suspects – now identified as Sparks - jumped in the Camaro and drove off, followed by the second car. Shortly after the suspects fled the scene and left the Camaro driver laying in the roadway, an off-duty Birmingham police officer in his private vehicle was driving down Third Avenue and, without seeing the man in the road, ran over the Camaro driver.
Jackson was pronounced dead on the scene. It doesn’t appear that Sparks and Jackson knew each other.
