Police are seeking a suspect after the grandson of Cleveland Mayor Frank G. Jackson was fatally shot. Police found the body of 24-year-old Frank Q. Jackson near a public housing project in the city on Sunday night. News reports say the mayor visited the shooting scene before leaving. Frank Q. Jackson was free on $10,000 bond while he awaited a court appearance for a felonious assault charge in which he was accused of dragging a police officer while trying to flee his car in January. The grandson pleaded guilty in 2019 to misdemeanor assault stemming from a fight with his then-girlfriend. He was sentenced to 18 months probation.
