Mackenson Gay, 32, was killed in the early hours of December 31, 2021, at a restaurant and bar on West Colonial Drive in Orlando. Gay was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead shortly afterward.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office identified Saint-Louis as the primary suspect and issued a warrant for his arrest on January 4, 2022. Saint-Louis reportedly left the country for Haiti after the shooting and remained there for an extended period before returning to Florida; details about his time in Haiti and the timing of his return are unclear. In June 2024 he was arrested in Broward County and charged with premeditated first-degree murder with a firearm; he is being held in Broward County Jail without bond pending extradition to Orange County.

If anyone observed the argument that night or has information about events at the West Colonial Drive restaurant and bar on December 31, 2021, please come forward.
