On March 8, 2015, ten-year-old Nathaniel Reedy-McCoy was fatally shot in the chest outside a trailer in Union Gap, Washington while he and his grandfather, Steven A. Reedy, had gone to check a generator after a sudden power loss. Nathaniel was taken to a local hospital and died of his wounds; three other people, including his sister, were at the home that morning.

Early reports did not identify a suspect or a motive and police said the shooting did not appear to be gang-related. An autopsy later estimated the shot was fired from very close range, between two and six feet, which led investigators to focus on the only person known to have been that close to Nathaniel at the time — his grandfather. In July 2016 Yakima County prosecutors charged 58-year-old Steven A. Reedy with manslaughter and unlawful possession of a firearm; Reedy has denied killing his grandson and told police an unknown assailant fired the shot while they checked the generator.

Did anyone in Union Gap recall unusual activity near that trailer the night of March 7–8, 2015, or have information about who might have been nearby?
