Isaiah Ford, listed in reports as Isiah Ford, was an 18-year-old from Birmingham who was shot and killed on July 5, 2008, while driving through the South Park Apartments area near South Park Terrace in the Five Points West neighborhood. Officers from the West Precinct reportedly heard the gunfire and saw a white car speed away; the vehicle left the road and stopped on the grass. Ford, who had been driving, was found with a gunshot wound and taken to UAB Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Two male passengers, ages 17 and 20, were in the car and were not reported injured. His obituary confirmed his death date and listed his parents and brothers among survivors. Later reports and a 2008 homicide listing link a 16-year-old, Ricky Deonte Ward, to an August 2008 arrest on capital murder and attempted murder charges in the case, but the available material does not document the final outcome of those charges.

Does anyone have information about what happened after the arrest or knew Isaiah Ford?
