Ahmad Rashad Laster Sr., 36, was shot to death in the early morning of September 19, 2017, in Palm Coast, Florida. A neighbor heard a gunshot and found Laster bleeding from a head wound in a driveway on Parkview Drive; he was taken to Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach and died shortly after arrival.

Investigators identified Laster’s cousin, Clarence Murphy Jr., 41, as the primary suspect and arrested him later that day during a traffic stop. Authorities said the fatal confrontation grew out of a dispute over a drug transaction: Laster allegedly gave Murphy an EBT card that was supposed to have $100 on it in exchange for drugs, and Murphy confronted Laster after discovering the card did not contain the expected funds. Reports say the argument escalated and Laster was shot in the head.

The killing left Laster’s wife, Erica Laster, and their children grieving. Does anyone have information about Laster’s connections in Palm Coast or the events that night?
