Keenon Williams, a 17-year-old Black male from New Orleans, was killed on May 31, 2017, when gunfire tore through a vehicle parked in the city’s Seventh Ward. Police were called just after 6 p.m. to the 3000 block of Pauger Street and found Williams and another young man, Kelvin Jones Jr., shot inside a car. One victim was pronounced dead at the scene; the other was rushed to a hospital and did not survive. The Orleans Parish Coroner’s Office identified Williams as one of the dead.

Early reports said investigators had not released much about what led up to the shooting or who might have been responsible. Months later detectives said they had developed a lead and on November 27, 2017, the New Orleans Police Department announced it had obtained an arrest warrant for Javonte Thomas on a charge of first-degree murder and appealed for information on his whereabouts.

Did anyone in the Seventh Ward that evening see or hear anything that could help clarify what happened on Pauger Street?
