Charles Keith Morgan Jr., 26, was found unresponsive from a gunshot wound outside the Livingston Apartments at 21 Palmer Street in Asheville on June 1, 2014. He was taken to Mission Hospital shortly after 3 a.m. and later died. A 25-year-old woman was also shot and treated at Mission Hospital for injuries not believed to be life-threatening.

Officers recovered six 9mm and five .40 shell casings at the scene near Depot Street and the southern end of South French Broad Avenue. Police say about 30 people witnessed the shooting, but no arrest has been announced and investigators reported few leads. Neighbors at a community meeting expressed fear about speaking to police or the media, and discussed other unsolved deaths in the area.

Morgan had prior convictions dating to 2004, including robbery, breaking and entering, drug possession, larceny, and carrying a concealed weapon, and was scheduled to appear in Buncombe County District Court on June 11 on new charges. His funeral was set for Friday at Nazareth First Baptist Church. Does anyone have information about what happened that morning or about witnesses who were present?
