ANTIOCH – A suspect has been identified and charged in the killing of a 48-year-old Antioch man in 2024, police said.
The victim, Raheem Coe, was found deceased in the 2200 block of Country Hill Drive around 7:20 a.m. on May 15, 2024, according to the Antioch Police Department.
The death was later ruled a homicide.
Detectives identified 23-year-old Ronald Benjamin Jackson III as a suspect “through the processing of evidence, witness interviews and the review of video surveillance,” police said.
Jackson is in custody at San Quentin State Prison on unrelated charges, police said.
The case was presented to the Contra Costa County District Attorney’s Office, which has since charged Jackson with murder, kidnapping and criminal threats, police said.
Police said Jackson will be transferred to the Martinez Detention Facility pending future court proceedings.
