Andre Wright, 25, was fatally shot on July 9, 2017, on Mariner Drive in Baton Rouge after stepping in to try to de-escalate a heated argument. Wright — remembered as a gospel singer who played keyboard at local churches — intervened in a dispute that reportedly involved his brother and a man named Eric Robertson, and was struck during the altercation.

Law enforcement arrested 23-year-old Eric Robertson in Addis the following Monday afternoon on charges that included murder, illegal use of a weapon, and being a felon in possession of a firearm. Authorities also took into custody August Nettles, described as part of the group involved in the initial fight; his arrest was linked to vehicle burglaries and an association with the Block Boyz Gang.

Wright’s family and community mourned a life cut short while trying to keep the peace. Anyone with information about the shooting or the events that led up to it is asked to come forward.
