Seventeen-year-old Damian Crockem Jr. was shot and killed on June 13, 2017, at the Webber hotel in the 9300 block of Chef Menteur Highway in New Orleans East. The shooting prompted a police investigation that continued for months afterward.

In November 2017 New Orleans police tracked a stolen car to a house on Lavender Street near Franklin Avenue in Gentilly. A group that included a suspect in Damian’s murder ran into the residence; while some surrendered, one suspect barricaded himself and was later taken into custody. That suspect was identified as 18-year-old Keaun Jones. A grand jury had already indicted Jones for Damian’s murder and he had been scheduled for arraignment the previous week but failed to appear. Two other co-defendants in the case were already jailed before the November standoff.

Does anyone have information about Damian, the June 2017 shooting, or the investigation that followed?
