A late-evening argument on November 19, 2016, in the 1600 block of Jade Avenue in Baton Rouge turned deadly when 32-year-old Eric Jerard Jones was shot during a struggle. Jones, a fry cook at Sammy’s Grill and a father, was found unresponsive between two buildings around 10:30 p.m. and taken to a hospital, where he died of his wounds.

Authorities say the confrontation involved another man, Clarence Eugene Parker. Parker allegedly produced a firearm, shot Jones twice during the struggle, then fired another shot as Jones lay wounded. Investigators say Parker returned to his apartment, told a witness he had shot someone and left in a ride-share with that witness. A suspect identification led to the arrest of 22-year-old Clarence Eugene Parker on January 5, 2017; he was charged with second-degree murder and booked into the parish prison.

Does anyone have information about Jones, his movements that night, or witnesses who saw the incident or the ride-share departure?
