Neville Allen, a 22-year-old Black man, was shot on February 4, 2020, at his workplace, the Louisiana Culinary Institute in Baton Rouge, and died of his wounds the following day in hospital. Surveillance video described in reports shows the shooting as a deliberate ambush: a man arrived in the institute parking lot, retrieved a shotgun from his vehicle, approached Allen while he was outside on his phone, and shot him in the chest at close range before fleeing.

Police identified the alleged shooter as 22-year-old Trebien Adams, described as the jealous boyfriend of a woman Allen had recently started dating. Investigators say Adams sent threatening texts, calls, and letters to Allen before the shooting. Adams reportedly admitted confronting Allen and claimed he meant only to scare him, saying he believed the shotgun was unloaded. He named another man, Jarquin Handy, as the person who provided the weapon and who assured him it was not loaded. Handy was present during the shooting and later admitted to not rendering aid to Allen after the shooting.

What further information do readers in Baton Rouge or anyone who knew Neville or these individuals have that could help clarify what happened?
