Demarcus Rheams, 20, died from a gunshot wound on January 10, 2015, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He and a 19-year-old friend, Jawan Lloyd Billy, had been sleeping on the same couch in a garage apartment and were beginning to wake at about 12:30 p.m. Police say Billy had a gun tucked into his waistband; as he shifted to adjust his clothing the firearm discharged and a single bullet struck Rheams in the side of his chest.

Officers responded and later arrested Jawan Lloyd Billy; he was booked on a negligent homicide charge in connection with Rheams’s death.

Did anyone in Baton Rouge know Demarcus or have information about the apartment where this happened?
