A shooting on September 23, 2014, in Baton Rouge left 36-year-old Cornell Cummings with multiple gunshot wounds after he was found in the front yard of a West Johnston Street residence. He was taken to a hospital and later to a rehabilitation facility, but on December 1, 2014, Cummings died of his wounds; his death was ruled a homicide.

Investigators initially believed two people were involved. In 2016, 19-year-old Deandre Anthony was arrested on suspicion of shooting Cummings, but those charges were later dropped. In January 2022, 37-year-old Tolley Ray Milton was arrested and charged with second-degree murder; police said spent shell casings from the original scene were linked to Milton and that a witness identified him in a six-person lineup. Milton was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.

Whoever knew Cornell, was there anyone who saw activity near West Johnston Street on September 23, 2014, or has information about either person mentioned?
