Robert Hugh-Patrick Gray, a 38-year-old Black man, was shot and killed on December 25, 2018, in the backyard of his Kissimmee, Florida, home. The shooting followed an argument between Gray and his girlfriend, Taniqua Kales. A 24-year-old neighbor, Jonathan Velasquez, intervened after hearing the argument. Velasquez said he retrieved a gun from the house where he was staying, fired a warning shot into the ground, and — after calling 911 — fired two shots that struck Gray as Gray continued to approach. Gray was taken to Poinciana Medical Center and pronounced dead.

Velasquez was arrested and charged with murder and was denied bail at his initial court appearance. Kales disputed Velasquez’s account, saying she and Gray were not fighting at the time. Investigators noted Gray had a prior arrest in July 2018 for a domestic incident involving Kales. The case centers on competing accounts about whether Velasquez reasonably feared for anyone’s safety when he fired.

Did anyone witness the argument or the moments immediately before the shooting who hasn’t already spoken to investigators?
