On May 11, 2015, 17-year-old Jatarius Tariq Tolbert was shot and killed in a Tacoma parking lot near South 93rd and Hosmer streets around 8:30 p.m. He had been in a group of about a dozen other young men when a Dodge Charger passed by. Accounts differ on the sequence: some friends said someone in the Charger returned fire after an acquaintance of Tolbert’s, 17-year-old Treveon Reed, pulled out a revolver and fired at the passing vehicle; another witness said no shots came from the Charger.

Tolbert was struck in the back and died at the scene. Three days later Reed was arrested; the revolver recovered during a traffic stop was later confirmed by the state crime lab to be the gun that fired the fatal shot. Reed ultimately admitted he had not switched guns and that he had accidentally shot Tolbert, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, and was sentenced in February 2016 to more than 16 years in prison.

Does anyone who knew Jatarius or was in that neighborhood that night have information that could clarify what happened?
