A late-night argument in West Palm Beach on Saturday, May 9, 2026, ended in the fatal shooting of 64-year-old Joseph Key Jr. Officers responded to a ShotSpotter alert near 15th Street and found Key, who was taken to a nearby hospital and later died of multiple gunshot wounds. Surveillance footage captured the confrontation and shows both Key and a man identified as 31-year-old Jarvis Lee Williams drawing firearms; investigators say Williams continued to shoot after Key fell.

Williams was later located at St. Mary’s Medical Center with a gunshot wound to his hand and was arrested. He is a convicted felon and has been charged with second-degree murder and being a felon in possession of a firearm; a judge set bond at $50,000. The case against Williams relies heavily on the surveillance video and his hospital appearance with a gunshot wound.

Did anyone in the West Palm Beach area see the argument or the vehicle that left the scene?
