Police detail events that led to Slim Chickens shooting, 1 charged with murder

PRESS RELEASE FROM THE JACKSON POLICE DEPARTMENT:

UPDATE (1/24/25): Slim Chickens suspect appears in court, warrant reveals new info

The Jackson Police Department is investigating a shooting that occurred at Slim Chickens Restaurant, 6 Channing Way, on January 21, 2025 around 6:30 pm.

Through investigation, it was determined that a group of subjects entered the business and walked into the kitchen area where they approached an employee, Harrison Cobb (a 22 year-old male). The group of subjects began to physically assault Cobb, at which point he retrieved a handgun and began firing at the subjects who were assaulting him.

As a result of Cobb’s actions, one male subject, who was identified as Andretti Siddell, a 32-year-old man, sustained injuries that rendered him immobile, but still alive at the time. After several moments passed, Cobb continued to fire shots at Mr. Siddell although he was no longer a physical threat due to him being immobile and unarmed. Officers who arrived on scene attempted life saving measures but unfortunately Mr. Siddell died as a result of his injuries. Two other individuals who were also with the group sustained non-life threatening injuries.

The entire incident was captured on video surveillance.

Cobb was immediately taken into custody and is currently being charged with First Degree Murder. He will be formally arraigned at Jackson City Court on Friday morning. This is still an ongoing investigation and if anyone has any further information please contact the Jackson Police Department at 731-425-8400 or Crime Stoppers at 731-424-8477.
