Javarcia Riggins, a 22-year-old African American male, was killed on October 9, 2018, in Fort Myers, Florida. The shooting occurred shortly before 9:30 p.m. in the Bell Tower Shops parking lot as Riggins and 56-year-old Kevin Robinson were leaving TGI Friday’s after a family dinner for Phyllis Hayden’s birthday. Authorities described the attack as targeted; no suspects had been identified in the immediate aftermath.

Riggins had a criminal history that included a 2013 arrest for aggravated battery at age 17, accused of shooting at someone, and he had been released from prison in March 2018. The shooting left two other people injured: a woman in critical condition and a man with minor injuries from shattered glass. Family members, including Riggins’ mother Phyllis Hayden and her niece Mira Campbell, were left grieving at the scene.

What information might help move this investigation forward for those who knew Javarcia or were at the Bell Tower Shops that night?
