Khoua Yang, a 36-year-old man from the Milwaukee area, was visiting Saint Paul for a family wedding when he was shot and killed in the early morning hours of October 1, 2023. He was a husband and a brother. Yang and the group he traveled with met another wedding guest, identified later as an Oklahoma resident, and after visiting bars an argument began inside a vehicle.

The dispute continued on the 2100 block of Scenic Place in the Battle Creek neighborhood, where a witness said the other man produced a pistol, attempted to strike Yang with it, and a gunshot was heard as both men fell to the ground; Yang was found unresponsive by police around 2:10 a.m. and pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators recovered a cellphone at the scene that was traced to 44-year-old Jason Moua and say text messages showed Moua had discussed obtaining a firearm during the visit; a witness who had been with Yang later provided a detailed statement to police.

Did anyone who knew Khoua or was in that area that night see what happened or have additional information?
