Police say 30-year-old Shanice Brookes is killed in an incident outside a Sheffield city-centre bar during the early hours of a bank holiday Monday. Reports from multiple outlets say she was shot near the One Four One bar on West Street shortly before 2:45am. Police describe Brookes as an “innocent bystander.”
Following the death, a man and a woman are charged in connection with the fatal shooting. The charges include murder, with at least one outlet identifying the suspect as Jemele Rhone. Other reports describe the case as involving a pair charged over the death of the “innocent bystander.”
One outlet also notes the victim is a mother of one. The incident is reported to have occurred outside the bar, and police statements characterise Brookes as having been caught up in the circumstances rather than being involved. Authorities are taking the case forward through the criminal justice system, with references to an accused person going to trial in later reporting. The news coverage includes the use of the “innocent bystander” description attributed to police.
