James Chapman was 75 when he was shot and killed in a Montgomery, Alabama parking lot on Sunday, November 29, 2015. The shooting happened in the 4600 block of Rosa Parks Avenue as Chapman, known to family and friends as Jim, was meeting someone to sell a $50 rifle he’d agreed to sell as a favor for a friend. Chapman’s daughter reports he was shot as soon as he exited his vehicle; police arrived to find him with a fatal gunshot wound.

The case has been investigated as a homicide. No arrest was reported in the initial accounts, and by early 2017 the case remained unsolved. Chapman’s family and friends offered a financial reward for information; Central Alabama CrimeStoppers matched the family’s initial reward, and the family appealed to the city and the governor’s office for help increasing the amount.

Did anyone see activity in the 4600 block of Rosa Parks Avenue on November 29, 2015, or have information about the planned rifle sale?
