Luis Bravo was 16 when he was shot and killed on July 20, 2018, at the Speedway gas station on Freeman Street in Wilson, North Carolina. Paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene after he was found with gunshot wounds.

Police say six people were arrested in connection with the killing: five young men and a 15-year-old. Those identified by name in charging documents include Jahkil Jones, 18; Keydrick R. Parker, 18; Corey Williams Jr., 17; Shyheim Smiles, 18; and Shaiheim R. Murray, 16, all charged with first-degree murder, attempted murder, and attempted armed robbery; the unnamed 15-year-old was also charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder. Investigators allege the group planned to rob Bravo, a neighbor on Freeman Street they believed had money from working in the fields, and shot him during the attempted robbery while he was walking to a nearby convenience store.

Some defendants later entered guilty pleas to lesser counts and received prison sentences, including Jah’marion Fleming (16–20 years) and Keydrick R. Parker (20–25 years); other named defendants received varying sentences. Anyone with additional information is asked to contact the Wilson Police Department.
