On August 25, 2022, a burst of gunfire at a gas station parking lot on Ellis Avenue in Jackson, Mississippi, left 42-year-old Ray Monta Keyes dead. He was a Black father of four; his family and the local community were left to cope with the sudden loss.

The investigation identified a relative, Jeremiah Bubba Keyes, who was taken into custody in connection with Ray Keyes’s death. Reports note Jeremiah Keyes had prior charges including armed robbery and aggravated assault, a detail that has drawn attention as the case proceeds through the legal process.

If anyone was at the gas station that day or has information about what led to the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
