On the morning of February 9, 2019, 43-year-old Kenneth Jones was found in the 1800 block of Iberville Street in New Orleans suffering from gunshot wounds to his head and neck. First District officers discovered Jones at about 8:37 a.m.; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Investigators quickly focused on a romantic rivalry involving Jones, another man named Tyrone Cannon, and a shared partner. The night before the shooting the woman was with Cannon when she reported being awakened by breaking glass; Cannon allegedly saw Jones breaking the windows of his car and pursued him. Eyewitnesses said Jones was chased down and shot after an argument with the driver of an older model blue car.

NOPD Homicide detectives obtained an arrest warrant for Tyrone Cannon. He was arrested on February 13, 2019, booked on second-degree murder, and later indicted on second-degree murder, obstruction of justice in a homicide investigation, and being a felon in possession of a firearm. Did anyone in the area see or hear anything that morning that could help clarify what happened?
