On the evening of October 30, 2017, Brannon Wilkens, a male resident of New Orleans, was found in the 1600 block of North Villere Street with gunshot wounds. Fifth District officers arrived after a call of an aggravated battery by shooting at about 8:32 p.m. Emergency medical personnel responded but Wilkens’ injuries proved fatal and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

NOPD detectives identified Phillip Dominick III as the suspect and he was arrested on December 1, 2017, by the Violent Offender Warrant Squad and booked on a charge of second-degree murder. Witness testimony played a central role in the investigation, with several eyewitnesses coming forward despite reported intimidation.

Does anyone have information about Brannon Wilkens, the circumstances that night, or additional witnesses who have not yet spoken to investigators?
