On the evening of Friday, March 29, 2019, 19-year-old James Dale Kelly was found lying on the lawn beside the driveway at 7065 Buena Vista Road in Buena Vista, Tennessee, suffering from a single gunshot wound. A 911 call came in at 5:59 p.m., and deputies and first responders discovered Kelly at the scene.

Investigators determined the shooting occurred in the driveway during an illegal drug transaction that had taken place inside a parked car. A surveillance image of a silver vehicle seen nearby was released to the public, and tips led authorities to identify 20-year-old Corey Leavitt, Jr. of Huntingdon as the person responsible. Leavitt was arrested and charged with reckless homicide; he later pled guilty to reckless homicide and tampering with evidence in the case.

Does anyone have information about activity around Buena Vista Road that evening or about the silver vehicle seen near the scene?
