Muhiyidin Elamin Moye was a 32-year-old activist from Charleston, South Carolina who was shot while visiting New Orleans in the early morning of February 6, 2018. He was riding a bicycle in the 2200 block of Bienville Street when he was struck in the thigh. Despite the wound he tried to ride several blocks to get help, collapsed, was found by an officer after reports of gunfire, taken to a hospital in critical condition, and died about six hours later from blood loss.

The case produced few leads at first and friends and family described the shooting as seemingly random. Surveillance footage later showed a man attempting to knock Moye off his bicycle and then firing at him as he rode away. A tip to Crime Stoppers led to the identification and July 2018 arrest of 26-year-old Roosevelt Iglus on second-degree murder charges. Reports indicate investigators considered mistaken identity as a possible motive.

If anyone saw activity in the 2200 block of Bienville Street that night or has information about the incident, please share what you know.
