Melkevious Lake, 20, was fatally shot in the parking lot of the Alta Westgate Apartments in Orlando on November 23, 2014, days before Thanksgiving. Law enforcement responded quickly but early progress stalled because few witnesses were willing to come forward, a factor that left his family waiting for answers.

Nearly three years later an indictment named 25-year-old Jonathoan Mitchell on a first-degree murder charge in connection with Lake’s shooting. Mitchell had been identified as a person of interest after appearing in a YouTube rap video where he was shown flashing guns and drugs; that footage and other evidence contributed to the investigation that led to his arrest.

Melkevious’s mother, Sonya Maye, described mixed emotions on hearing of the arrest and said she planned to attend the upcoming trial. Who has information about what happened that night at Alta Westgate Apartments?
