In the late morning of November 29, 2021, 18-year-old Joshua Shorter of Baton Rouge was found inside a vehicle on Gus Young Avenue, shot multiple times. Police responded at about 10:20 a.m., and Shorter was pronounced dead while seated in the driver’s side of his car.

The investigation continued for months. On February 23, 2022, the Baton Rouge Police Department announced the arrest of 21-year-old Ralph Paul in connection with Shorter’s killing. He was booked on multiple charges, including second-degree murder, illegal use of a weapon, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Shorter’s family, including his mother Tamikka Rose Shorter and his father James Mack, Jr., publicly mourned his death.

Are there witnesses or anyone with information about the events on Gus Young Avenue that morning who can help investigators?
