Eula Mae Butler Ivey, 55, was killed in a drive-by shooting on Monday, June 14, 2010, on the 8900 block of Birch Street in New Orleans. She was in the front yard of her grandson’s home at about 6:15 PM when two vehicles drove by and occupants fired multiple rounds. Ms. Ivey was struck numerous times and died at the scene; another grandson, Jonathan Butler, was wounded by a stray bullet that penetrated the house. The shooting was directed at her grandson Glin Butler, who lived at the Birch Street address and had been the subject of police contact about a separate shooting earlier that evening.

Investigators identified several participants in the attack. Carey Jones, known as Bean, and Theron Golston, known as Thema, were later arrested; witnesses placed Jones among the shooters and reported Golston exiting a wrecked car and continuing to fire. Both Jones and Golston pleaded guilty in federal court for their roles. The probe also implicated Norman Ratcliff, known as Turk, and others, with some defendants charged in state court and pleading to lesser counts.

What information do readers have about the people or vehicles seen in the Birch Street area that evening?
