Jordan Chavez was 20 when he was shot dead on October 30, 2024, in the Plum Orchard neighborhood of New Orleans. Chavez and 17-year-old Tynarvia Rogers were found with at least one gunshot wound and pronounced dead at the scene on Laine Avenue near Crowder Boulevard.

Online discussion has suggested a possible connection to a separate killing nine days earlier: on October 21, 2024, 36-year-old Manuel Jones was fatally shot in the 4700 block of Bonita Drive in the same neighborhood; two suspects in that case, 19-year-old Mekhai Pierce and 18-year-old Diamond Ebbs, were later arrested and charged with second-degree murder.

A social media post has alleged links between the two incidents, claiming a woman who lived at the Chavez and Rogers scene was present at the Jones homicide, that she and her mother were detained for questioning, that cameras were disconnected around the time of the double murder, and that both fled the state. Those allegations have not been substantiated by law enforcement or news reports. Anyone in Plum Orchard who has information about Chavez, Rogers, or the October 30 scene is asked to come forward.
