Edgar Lopez Jr., 34, was killed on August 8, 2023, after a confrontation on Russell Street near Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in Covington, Kentucky. What began as a physical altercation that reportedly started elsewhere escalated into a shooting; police found Lopez with gunshot wounds when they arrived. Another man was injured in the earlier fight rather than by gunfire.

Investigators identified two people connected to the incident. Brian Gray was allegedly involved in the fistfight with Lopez and was charged with second-degree assault, with witnesses saying Gray struck Lopez with a brick. Prosecutors described Dazzamon Raheem Jones as the primary suspect in the shooting; a warrant was issued for murder and authorities say video evidence shows Jones firing a rifle into Lopez’s car. Investigators recovered 26 shell casings at the scene.

Lopez was a carpenter and member of Covington Christian Church, survived by his parents, a son, two sisters, and his girlfriend. Does anyone who knew Edgar or who was in that area on August 8, 2023 have information that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
