On the evening of November 2, 2013, Darrius Scott, a 20-year-old African American man, was shot and killed after an argument at the Greater Baton Rouge State Fair. The shooting caused panic among fairgoers; Scott was found with gunshot wounds, taken to a local hospital, and pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Eyewitness accounts led investigators to identify 18-year-old Keithdrick Lamond Pier as the shooter. Pier was taken into custody and booked on a charge of second-degree murder; an East Baton Rouge Parish grand jury later indicted him on that charge. Records show a Keithdrick Pier with a birthdate of October 28, 1995, and note prior gun-related offenses, including a conviction for simple burglary of an inhabited dwelling in which a handgun was stolen.

Did anyone at the fair that night see something that could still help clarify what happened?
