Authorities in Chester County, Pennsylvania, have announced charges against three additional suspects in connection with a mass shooting at Lincoln University last October. The incident occurred during a homecoming event on October 27, 2025, and resulted in the death of Jujuan Jeffers, 20, and injuries to six others.

The suspects, identified as William Sells, 20, Karon Rollins, 17, and Makaveli Valera, 19, all from Wilmington, Delaware, face multiple charges, including second-degree murder and robbery. Chester County District Attorney Christopher de Barrena-Sarobe stated that the three targeted attendees for armed robberies, stealing jewelry and other valuables, before the shooting. Rollins is being charged as an adult.

According to WGAL News, the suspects allegedly used social media posts and text messages to boast about their actions, which helped investigators link them to the crime. The investigation, supported by the FBI and Pennsylvania State Police, also revealed surveillance footage of the suspects at the scene.

Previously, Zecqueous Morgan-Thompson, 21, was arrested at the scene for carrying a concealed firearm. He now faces additional charges, including aggravated assault. Authorities believe Morgan-Thompson acted independently and was not part of the robbery plan.

The family of Jujuan Jeffers has filed a lawsuit against Lincoln University, alleging negligence in providing adequate security during the event. The university has not commented on the litigation.

The suspects are currently in custody in Delaware and face extradition to Chester County. The investigation remains ongoing as authorities work to ensure justice for the victims.
