Nathan Jamal Bob, 27, was shot in the late hours of Sunday, October 29, 2023, in the 500 block of Orchid Drive in Lafayette, Louisiana. He was taken to a local hospital but died shortly after arrival. A lifelong Lafayette resident, Bob was a father described as dedicated to raising and caring for his children.

A Lafayette Parish grand jury later returned an indictment charging 23-year-old Dontrell Laray Clark with one count of second-degree murder in connection with Bob’s death. If convicted of that charge, the indictment states Clark would face a mandatory life sentence without parole, probation, or suspension of sentence.

Anyone who knew Nathan, his routines, or who has information about the shooting in the 500 block of Orchid Drive is asked to come forward.
