Silas Roderick Regus Gibbs was 24 when he was fatally shot on Interstate 110 in Baton Rouge on March 3, 2012. Gibbs, a former Southern University running back, was found slumped over in the front passenger seat of a stalled red Ford Mustang between the Mohican and Chippewa exits after a Baton Rouge officer stopped to investigate. He had sustained a gunshot wound to the face and the passenger side window was shattered and lying on the ground.

Investigators rapidly identified a suspect who had been in the car with Gibbs shortly before the shooting. Authorities charged 22-year-old Walter Jerome Fort of Zachary with second-degree murder and illegal use of a weapon. Fort fled to Houston but was located on March 5, 2012, and returned to Baton Rouge to face charges. Two other people who had been in the car called 911 and provided information that contributed to the investigation.

Does anyone have information about Gibbs, the Mustang, or the events on I-110 that night?
