Willie Edwards, 34, of Beaumont, Texas, was shot multiple times and died after being found in a parking lot near the intersection of Steelton Street and Fillmore Street on May 28, 2022. He was later pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.

Two Beaumont residents, 22-year-old Isaiah Charles Brewer and 17-year-old Algerreau Marquel McQueen, were arrested and charged with first-degree murder. A witness reported McQueen fired at Edwards until he fell, and Brewer then also shot at him. Both suspects fled in a black Nissan Altima with paper tags; the vehicle was recovered and the suspects taken into custody. Detectives said a disturbance involving multiple people occurred before the shooting.

Both men were held in the Jefferson County Jail on bonds set at $927,000; Brewer’s bond was later reduced to $750,000 and he was confined to his home with a GPS device. The case remains pending and investigators continue to seek information from anyone who may have seen or heard anything that night.
