Sam Jackson, 32, a founder of the Young Fellaz Brass Band and active in the Mardi Gras Indian community, was shot and killed on a Friday morning in May 2023 around 10 a.m. at the intersection of St. Anthony and North Rampart streets in the Marigny neighborhood of New Orleans. Police say the fatal encounter was a shootout between Jackson and another man; both were wounded and taken to a nearby hospital, and Jackson later died there. The other man was reported in critical condition and investigators later confirmed both men fired at each other during the incident. The death is a significant loss to the city’s music and cultural scene.

Did anyone see the altercation at St. Anthony and North Rampart that morning or have information about who the other man was?
