SAGINAW, Mich. — The Saginaw community is mourning the tragic loss of 29-year-old Adarrius Robinson of Bridgeport Township after a fatal shooting early Sunday morning. As family and friends grieve the sudden loss, authorities have announced that a suspect has been charged in connection with the homicide, bringing a significant development to the ongoing investigation.
According to the Saginaw Police Department, officers were dispatched to the 2400 block of Phoenix Street near South 20th Street at approximately 2:20 a.m. on June 8 following reports of gunfire. Witnesses told investigators they heard roughly a dozen shots before police were notified. When officers arrived at the scene, they found Robinson suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Emergency medical personnel immediately rendered aid, but despite their efforts, he was pronounced dead at the scene.
The death of Robinson prompted an extensive homicide investigation involving the Saginaw Police Department and detectives from the Michigan State Police Major Case Unit. Investigators spent hours processing the scene, collecting evidence, and interviewing witnesses in an effort to determine what led to the deadly shooting. Authorities initially reported that no suspect had been taken into custody as detectives worked to follow leads and piece together the events surrounding Robinson’s death.
As the investigation progressed, prosecutors charged 50-year-old Kevin Keaner with Murder and Tampering with Evidence in connection with the case. Keaner is currently being held at the Saginaw County Jail and is expected to be arraigned later this week. While the charges represent a major step forward in the investigation, officials have not yet released details regarding a possible motive or the specific circumstances that led to the deadly encounter.
