Ray Charles Smith, a 61-year-old African American man, was shot on August 22, 2014, in Huntsville, Texas, and died of his wounds the next day, August 23. Earlier on August 22 he was identified as the aggressor in a domestic incident; police responded but he had left the scene before officers arrived. About an hour later a shooting was reported in the 1400 block of Sycamore Avenue, where officers found Smith with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to hospital and later died.

The investigation led to the arrest of 19-year-old Garius O’Bryant, who turned himself in to the Huntsville Police Department on August 26, 2014. Joyce O’Bryant, 69, was also taken into custody; she was released on a $75,000 bond while Garius remained in custody on the same bond amount. Multiple agencies were involved as authorities gathered evidence.

Who in the Huntsville area might have seen activity on Sycamore Avenue that night or has information about the earlier domestic incident?
