On May 2, 2020, at about 2:00 PM, North Little Rock police officers responding to a weapons disturbance at 2300 Pike Avenue found 24-year-old KeShawn Alexander Cameron of White Hall, Arkansas, lying unresponsive in the parking lot. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Early reports mistakenly listed his age as 34; that was later corrected to 24.

Investigators identified 23-year-old Michael DVaughtae Evans of Wisconsin as a suspect. An arrest warrant charging first-degree murder was issued on May 12, 2020. Evans was arrested without incident on May 14 at his girlfriend’s residence in the 1000 block of North D Street in the Dixie community of North Little Rock and was held without bond at the Pulaski County Regional Detention Center. Authorities said they continued to investigate the circumstances and the relationship between Evans and Cameron.

Cameron’s death was reported as part of a series of shootings in the area that raised community concern about gun violence. Memorial services were held and family and friends remembered him as a young man with a promising future. If anyone knew KeShawn Cameron or has information about what happened at 2300 Pike Avenue that day, please come forward.
