Lindsey Franklin Jones, 33, was found shot to death the morning of June 20, 2016, in an overgrown area off 17th Street Southwest near Tuscaloosa Avenue and Pearson Avenue in the Oakwood Place area near West End in Birmingham. Neighbors reported hearing gunshots around 1 a.m., and investigators said Jones appeared to have been shot in the back while running from someone, giving the scene the character of a pursuit rather than a chance encounter.

His body was discovered after it had apparently been there for hours, and police sealed off the block as the coroner and investigators worked. Authorities described the shooting as targeted in their early assessment, but no suspect was publicly named and no arrest had been announced in the reporting available at the time. The central question of who chased Lindsey Jones and why remained unanswered.

If anyone in the Oakwood Place or West End area that night saw something that could help identify who pursued Lindsey Jones, please share what you know with investigators.
