According to a January 1 arrest warrant affidavit, a third suspect has been charged with the August homicide of Chin “Jin” Shin, 43. The Ft Worth murder was allegedly the result of a “fender bender.”

 Shin was a popular and well-known part of the North Texas Asian community. Shin owned Encore Family Karaoke and co-owned Dallas-based  DanSungSa Korean restaurant.  His friends and family have been frustrated at what they claim has been a very slow investigation by Ft. Worth police.

On Sunday Quamon White, 30, of Fort Worth, was booked into Tarrant County jail. And bail was set at $100,000. This is the third man to be charged in the death of Shin.

Markynn West, 29, was arrested in September and charged with one count of murder.  Kameron Taylor, 28, was arrested in December. And he was also charged with one count of murder. Both men have been released on bond.

A fender bender results in Ft Worth murder

Early morning on August 15 Fort Worth officers responded to a 911 call regarding a car accident in the 2500 block of University Drive, south of Interstate 30.

Chin Jin Shin had been involved in an accident where he hit another car. The woman whose car was hit called Markynn West to the scene. 

There were a number of additional reports that West did not show up at the accident scene alone. And that up to 8 cars were on the scene surrounding Shin.

Responding officers were told several people were beating up the driver who had “caused the accident.”  And that two people were pointing guns at each other, the affidavit says.

By the time officers arrived, most of the cars had disappeared. And Shin was found shot dead on the east side of University Drive. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

West remained at the scene. Police say West admitted he shot and killed Shin. And claimed there was an argument between himself and Shin.

After being questioned by police West was initially released.  And he was not charged till three weeks later.

Police said they were still “interviewing all involved subjects. “

A GoFundMe account for legal expenses and to provide for Hin’s 14-year-old daughter has raised more than $100,000.

Attorneys for West, Taylor, and White are not commenting at this time.
