On April 25, 2022, at approximately 7:00 pm., Valdosta Police Officers responded to the 1300 block of Ponderosa Drive, after numerous citizens called 911 to report a shooting. When officers arrived on the scene, they found a 17-year-old female with gunshot wounds to her legs. Emergency Medical Services responded and transported the victim to South Georgia Medical Center, where she received treatment for non-life-threatening injuries. Witnesses told officers that multiple males were shooting while identifying them by name.
Detectives and Crime Scene Personnel responded to the shooting scene and conducted the investigation. Through investigation, detectives identified the three shooters as Ahmaree Malik Frederick, Kelvin Spivey, and Talonnie Rae-Quan Rogers. The shooters shot into a crowd of people, resulting in the victim being struck, before running from the scene.
On April 26, 2022, detectives obtained arrest warrants for Frederick and Rogers for aggravated assault (felony), possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime (felony), and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon (felony).

On April 27, 2022, detectives received information on possible locations for the offenders. Numerous searches were conducted at different locations. Detectives found Frederick at a residence on Hyssop Crossing, where he was taken into custody without incident.
