Chauvin Caesh, a 21-year-old Black man, was shot and killed on May 5, 2017, in New Orleans. The shooting happened in the 4500 block of Rosemont Place on a Friday morning; initial reports described him as the lone victim who suffered a gunshot wound to the chest. Instead of an ambulance, Caesh was taken to a nearby hospital in a private vehicle but died from his wound, and by that afternoon the case was being treated as a homicide investigation.

Authorities released few details about what led up to the shooting, the sequence of events immediately before the gunfire, or any motive. If anyone has information about Chauvin Caesh, his movements that morning, or the circumstances on Rosemont Place, please come forward.
