Antonio Jay Jay McGuire, an 18-year-old from Tampa, was shot and killed shortly after midnight on May 17, 2020, at Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park in downtown Tampa. A large crowd had gathered in the park that night; witnesses described arguments and disturbances that escalated into violence before shots were fired. Officers found McGuire with gunshot wounds and he was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Tampa police identified a suspect and recovered the firearm believed to have been used, but investigators said the chaotic scene and the large number of people present made the probe difficult. Detectives asked the public for tips, cell phone videos, or social media posts that could help the investigation. Community members called for increased police presence and better crowd control after the killing.

Did anyone in the forum witness that night at Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park or have video or information that could help explain what happened?
