Kenneth Ravon Braddy was 24 when he died in a shooting at the Nitty Gritty club on South Main Street in Winston-Salem on February 16, 2013. A fight inside the club led security to try to clear the building; as people moved toward the parking lot, gunfire broke out and many rushed back inside.

Surveillance footage reportedly showed Braddy re-entering the club while displaying a handgun and pointing it toward two security guards, one of whom was armed. The armed guard fired multiple rounds, fatally striking Braddy at the scene; three other people were wounded, including 23-year-old Carmen Lenelle Simmons, who was found near the dance floor with a gunshot wound. Authorities later concluded the guard acted lawfully and in self-defense and did not file charges. Investigators continued to examine the earlier parking lot gunfire, but no additional arrests or suspects were publicly identified.

Did anyone in the area that night see what happened in the parking lot or have footage that could clarify how the violence began?
