Jezreel Aquilla Poleate, 24, was killed on the night of April 15, 2024, outside Republic NOLA in the Warehouse District of New Orleans. She was in line to join friends when gunfire erupted; eleven other people were injured in the same incident. No arrests had been announced by the New Orleans Police Department as of the latest information, and the shooter or shooters remained at large.

Jezreel’s family remember her as a fun-loving, devout young woman, a former high school majorette who loved singing and makeup. Her parents, Gary and Sharon Poleate, and her three brothers have spoken publicly about their grief and pleaded for an end to the violence that took their only daughter. A reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest.

If anyone was in or near Republic NOLA that night or has information that could help the investigation, please come forward.
