Jacob Yarbrough, 18, was one of two men killed in a shooting the night of Friday, March 25, 2022, near the intersection of Common and LaGrange streets in Lake Charles, Louisiana. He and 22-year-old James Malik Johnson had traveled from Houston to Lake Charles for what investigators say was a drug transaction; the meeting escalated and both men were shot. The suspects fled the scene and law enforcement later described the incident as a double homicide.

The Lake Charles Police Department identified two suspects and in May 2022 arrested 19-year-old Zyterius Anderson and 20-year-old Jamarcus Miller, charging each with two counts of second-degree murder. Both were booked into the Calcasieu Correctional Center with bonds set at $1.8 million; reports also say Miller was arrested in connection with an unrelated April shooting.

If anyone has information about Jacob’s trip to Lake Charles or the events around March 25, please share what you know with investigators.
