LePreston Porter, known professionally as Snootie Wild, was a 36-year-old rapper from Memphis found shot in the neck in a ditch in Houston, Texas, on February 25, 2022. He was taken to a hospital and died the next day. The incident happened around 2 a.m. after a woman reported her vehicle was stuck in a ditch; several people, including Snootie Wild, went to help. The woman said Snootie Wild pointed a gun at her, prompting her to flee; she then heard gunshots but did not realize he had been shot. A neighbor’s security camera reportedly captured the incident.

On December 14, 2022, Houston police arrested 22-year-old Ivory Duke Williams and charged him with murder after investigators used witness statements and video evidence to identify a suspect. Authorities said the probe was continuing and they were seeking additional suspects, including a woman seen fleeing the scene with Williams. Snootie Wild had moved to Houston three years earlier with his fiancée Krystal Meredith and is survived by his mother, siblings, and five children.

Are there witnesses or anyone with information about the early-morning scene who can help investigators?
