Late on the night of July 1, 2023, gunfire broke out at the Brookwood Apartments on South Railroad Avenue in Brookhaven, Mississippi. Police who arrived around 10:56 p.m. found 28-year-old Shanecia Ferdinand and her 30-year-old brother, LaDarius Rockingham, fatally shot inside an apartment. Shanecia was pregnant and her unborn child also died in the attack.

Authorities described the incident as domestic in nature. A suspect, 21-year-old Kelvin White, fled before officers arrived but was later located and arrested in Lincoln County on his birthday with assistance from the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office. He was initially charged with two counts of capital murder and one count of first-degree murder; those charges were amended on July 12, 2023, to three counts of first-degree murder with bond set at $500,000 per count. The investigation remains ongoing.

Did anyone in the Brookhaven area have contact with Shanecia, LaDarius, or Kelvin around July 1 who could help investigators?
