Vanderbilt Recruit Rajaan Bennett Killed in Murder/Suicide

Rajaan Bennett Killed

Top Vanderbilt Commodores football recruit Rajaan Bennett was killed early Thursday morning, around 2:30 am Georgia time, in an apparent murder/suicide.

The Cobb County SWAT team was called to the scene, and officers found two people who had been shot and killed inside the home: Bennett, 18, and Clifton O’Neal Steager, 39, who died from a self-inflicted gunshot to the head, according to Powder Springs police Lt. Matt Boyd.

Bennett’s mother, Narjaketha Bennett, and brother, Taiwan Hunter, ‘hysterically’ fled the house as cops arrived.  Hunter had also been shot.

Police have identified Steager as an ex-boyfriend of Rajaan’s mother Narjaketha.  Hunter was hospitalized from the gunshot wound(s) he received.

Bennett was a 3-star recruit that chose Vandy over Kentucky and Tennessee.
