The charges stem from the death of Vincent Buckles, who was found shot to death Jan. 28 by first responders dispatched to a vehicle fire.

The Port Huron Police Department said Drake also has an outstanding felony warrant for a double homicide out of Detroit in December 2023.
Drake’s preliminary hearing is scheduled for April 22.
