Jeffrey R. Horton, 31, was fatally shot in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on the evening of May 28, 2017. The shooting occurred at about 9:30 p.m. in the 4700 block of N. Hopkins Street. Horton was taken to a nearby hospital but died of his injuries during a Memorial Day holiday weekend that saw multiple victims of gun violence.

Witnesses placed Horton in the parking lot of a tavern with his cousin, DaVaughn Ray Horton, shortly before the shooting. According to a criminal complaint, one witness said DaVaughn drew a gun and fired despite no apparent conflict between the cousins. DaVaughn Horton fled to Alabama after the shooting but was later apprehended and extradited back to Wisconsin.

DaVaughn Horton was charged with second-degree reckless homicide, pleaded not guilty, and was being held in the Milwaukee County Jail on $50,000 bail as the case proceeded. Does anyone have information about Jeffrey Horton’s last known movements or who saw him that night?
