Keyron Ross was 18 and known as Tootie when he was shot while sitting in his car in the 3800 block of Texas Drive in the Algiers neighborhood of New Orleans on January 26, 2022. Though he was still breathing when taken to a hospital, he died of his injuries two days later on January 28, 2022.

A standout student-athlete at Edna Karr High School, Ross played football and baseball and had earned a dual athletic scholarship to the University of Georgia. He was also expecting his first child, a son, who would be born months after his death. The community held vigils in his memory and to protest gun violence. His mother said she believed the shooter was someone her son knew and had even invited into their home.

Days after the shooting, a 19-year-old turned himself in to the New Orleans Police Department and was arrested; an indictment followed. What details can anyone add about that day or about Keyron’s last known movements?
