Breon Tre’Vaunt Gates, 27, was killed in a mass shooting just before 4 a.m. on January 1, 2022, in the parking lot of Coins Sports Bar in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Police found four people shot when they arrived; Gates was pronounced dead at the scene. Three others — two men, 23 and 27, and a 24-year-old woman, all believed to be from Illinois — were taken to area hospitals with injuries described from non-life-threatening to critical, and two hospitalized victims later showed improvement.

Kenosha police said they did not believe the shooting was random and suggested the victims may have been targeted, but no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests were announced. Gates, nicknamed Lucky, was a devoted father to his daughter Sevyn and was expecting a son, Breon Jr., the following month. He loved baking for his family and was remembered as a jokester always surrounded by music.

Did anyone in the area on New Year’s Day 2022 see people, vehicles, or confrontations near Coins Sports Bar that could help investigators?
