Police said at least one gun has been recovered from the scene.
The vigil was a week after Jackson, Lytton, and Hazel were announced as the three fatalities in the accident that took place last Saturday morning in Prince George's County. The preliminary investigation indicated another car struck Jackson's vehicle, which traveled off the right side of the road and struck multiple tree stumps.
Jackson was a rookie cornerback on the Vikings, selected in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL Draft. Hazel and Lytton were high school teammates of Jackson, with Hazel playing college football at Maryland and Charlotte and Lytton playing for Florida State and Penn State.
