Drevon Mixon, 19, was fatally shot at about 11:20 p.m. on April 21, 2026, at an RV park along Louisiana Highway 1 in Grand Isle. Mixon, originally from Panama City, Florida, and a longtime Cameron, Louisiana resident, had recently become a father and was remembered by relatives as a devoted fiancé, son and brother. Grand Isle officers found him unresponsive near a lot in the park; he had suffered at least one gunshot wound and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Jefferson Parish homicide detectives took over the investigation. Authorities say three people had gone to the RV park believing they would buy narcotics, and that Mixon and 18-year-old Wallace Ledet Jr. allegedly planned to rob them during the supposed transaction. Investigators reported that Mixon produced a firearm and was struck by gunfire from an armed occupant of the vehicle; detectives concluded the shooter acted in self-defense and was not arrested for the killing. Ledet and 20-year-old Jordan Morvant were later charged in connection with the alleged robbery scheme; court records show both pleaded not guilty on June 26, 2026, and prosecutions were pending.

Did anyone in Grand Isle or nearby see activity near the RV park that night or know Mixon’s movements leading up to April 21?
