Goldson, 23, was a senior and a men’s track and field athlete at Lincoln University in Jefferson City, Missouri. He was originally from Kingston, Jamaica. Jackson, also a senior and a women’s track and field athlete at the university, is from Berbice, Guyana.

Court documents show that a warrant for Jackson’s arrest was issued on Monday, Feb. 23. She was taken into custody, charged with second-degree murd£r and armed criminal action, and is being held without bond.

According to a probable cause statement obtained by PEOPLE, Jackson allegedly called Jefferson City Police to report that she had been involved in a disturbance with the victim and had st@bbed him at her residence. When officers arrived, they found Goldson in the living room with a stab wound to his chest and another to his back, along with minor scratches consistent with a physical struggle.

The documents state that Goldson did not cooperate with the police and was not interviewed about the incident.

He was transported to Capital Region Medical Center, where photographs of his injuries were taken. He was later airlifted to the University of Missouri Hospital in Columbia, Missouri, where he died during surgery.

During an interview with investigators, Jackson allegedly admitted to stabbing Goldson. According to the probable cause statement, she described their relationship as volatile and said it had involved prior domestic violence incidents. She also told police that friends had previously advised her to stay away from him.
