Who? Jermaine, Kaiison, (aka "The Dead") and the armed MB Driver, 30, years old.

Give this one to Colombo.
A: Why would "car-jackers" bring another vehicle, when there were only two of them?
B: The "vic" only started shooting after they left?
C: 30-year old driving an MB SUV at 4:40AM in a drug neighborhood? Not there to pick up milk and bread.

E: Ethnicity or Race of all involved: African-American.
E: Disposition of case: "Vic" (doubtless a convicted felon on probation himself) charged with gun violation. Will also cop to manslaughter in shooting of multiple baby daddies, poets, aspiring rappers, future Nobelists, Bible students, Nuclear Physics Majors at The Bronx CC, and multiple Obama voters.
