An 80-year-old woman, Augustine Greenwood, was killed by a stray bullet after a fight broke out in the parking lot of the Xavier University Convocation Center in New Orleans on May 31, 2022. Greenwood, a mother of six and grandmother of fifteen, had been attending the Morris Jeff Community School commencement to see her youngest grandson receive his diploma. Three people were shot during the disturbance; Greenwood was taken to a hospital where she died and two others suffered non-fatal injuries.

The New Orleans Police Department detained multiple people at the scene and later identified four suspects. Brandon Rock, 18 at the time, was arrested and charged with manslaughter and carrying a weapon on school property. Laverne Duplessis, 40, was arrested and charged with manslaughter, obstruction of justice, and carrying a gun in a gun-free zone. Warrants were issued for Frank Bartholomew, 49, for obstruction of justice, and for a 15-year-old for carrying a gun in a gun-free zone.

Did anyone at the commencement or in the parking lot see how the shooting began or who fired the fatal shot?
