Keshaun Q. Davis-Williams, a 23-year-old Black/African American man, was shot multiple times while waiting in his car at a BP on Verona Road in Madison on the evening of July 5, 2021. He was struck seven times and died less than an hour later despite medical attention.

Police identified suspects and charged two men in connection with the killing. Avion Little, then 26 and from Madison, pleaded guilty in August 2023 to first-degree reckless homicide as a party to a crime and received a 15-year prison sentence. Christopher Somerset pleaded guilty to first-degree intentional homicide and was sentenced to life in prison for his role in Davis-Williams’ death.
