On July 27, 2019, a gray Chevrolet Camaro that had struck a utility pole in the 2200 block of Amelia Street in New Orleans contained 18-year-old Dante Maurice Overton, who was pronounced dead at the scene. What first appeared to be a single-car crash was reclassified after investigators found that Overton had suffered a gunshot wound to the chest.

Authorities have not confirmed whether Overton was shot while driving or entered the vehicle after being wounded. The New Orleans Police Department opened a homicide investigation and did not release information about any suspect or a motive, appealing to the public for tips as the inquiry continued.

If anyone has information about Overton, his movements that night, or the gray Camaro, please contact the New Orleans Police Department.
