Raymar Alvester Webb was 30 when he was shot in a parking lot at the corner of West Short Street and North Mill Street in Lexington, Kentucky, on June 19, 2021. Police were called for shots fired at about 1:40 a.m.; Webb was found with gunshot wounds, taken to the University of Kentucky Medical Center, and later died of his injuries.

The next day family and friends held a vigil in that same parking lot. At the gathering they released heart-shaped balloons and marked a bittersweet gender reveal for Webb’s unborn child with pink confetti and fireworks, announcing his girlfriend was expecting a baby girl.

Lexington police identified a suspect after the shooting and on June 25, 2021 announced they were searching for 31-year-old Brandon Dockery, described by authorities as armed and dangerous. No motive or further details about what led to the shooting have been released. If anyone has information about what happened that night, please share it with investigators.
