On December 30, 2023, 25-year-old Houston resident Rodtravian Perry was fatally shot during a crowded trail ride event in Beaumont, Texas. The shooting happened around 11:33 p.m. in the 6500 block of Bigner Road, where roughly 1,000 people had gathered; four other attendees were also wounded. Responders struggled to reach victims through the dense crowd, and officers had to carry injured people to medical personnel.

A 26-year-old was arrested during the initial response for unlawfully carrying a weapon, but investigators say that arrest is not believed to be related to the shooting. By January 3, 2024, detectives had identified 19-year-old Beaumont resident Kindall Anderson as a person of interest and wanted him on unrelated felony warrants for evading police and tampering with evidence while seeking to question him about the incident. Police have reported difficulty with witness cooperation, and Perry’s family has publicly appealed for help.

Does anyone who attended the trail ride or has information about the 6500 block of Bigner Road that night have tips to share with investigators?
