Korey Green, 23, of Beaumont, Texas, was fatally shot on September 12, 2021, while seated in the passenger seat of a 2008 blue Honda CRV. The vehicle was later found at the 1000 block of Interstate 10 South after the driver, a 23-year-old Beaumont woman, fled the scene and sought help; she was taken to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The shooting happened after the pair left the Paradise Hookah Lounge parking lot and stopped at a traffic light at College Street and South 11th Street.

Investigators say 26-year-old Rickey James Johnson of Beaumont approached the vehicle and opened fire. Authorities determined Green and the female driver had been involved in an ongoing disturbance with Johnson prior to the shooting. Johnson was arrested and charged with murder and held on a $1 million bond at the Jefferson County Jail.

Few details are public about the dispute that led to the shooting or about what witnesses may have seen at the traffic light. Does anyone have information about that evening or saw the vehicle near College Street and South 11th Street?
