Germany Joaquin Byers, a 37-year-old African American man, was shot and killed on March 14, 2017, in Charlotte, North Carolina. The shooting occurred in broad daylight near Beatties Ford Road and LaSalle Street in a public area, a detail that deepened the family’s and community’s shock.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police opened a homicide investigation. A 22-year-old woman, Kyerra Guinn, was initially charged in the case; police said the shooting grew out of an altercation the day before. Authorities later made a second arrest, with investigators indicating more people might have been involved, though details about that arrest were not disclosed.

Family members held a candlelight vigil at Camp Greene Park, where Germany and his cousin Jarvis Byers had played as children. The family called for justice and an end to violence in the community. If anyone has information about the shooting or the people involved, can you share what you know with investigators?
