On the evening of January 5, 2022, 9-year-old LaSang Kemp Jr. was sitting inside a minivan on Santa Anita Drive in Starkville, Mississippi, when the vehicle was struck in a drive-by shooting. LaSang was hit by gunfire, taken to OCH Regional Medical Center, and died of his injuries. Three relatives and another passenger were in the minivan at the time; his father was not present.

Investigators say the shooting followed a separate exchange of gunfire earlier that day involving LaSang’s father, Lasang Kemp Sr., and another son on one side and three men identified as Barron Hubbard, Tabyron Fisher, and Dellveon Lindsey on the other. Those three reportedly sought out Christopher Perkins, and Perkins is accused of firing into the Kemp family’s minivan, striking LaSang twice.

Starkville police served more than 60 warrants in connection with the case and made multiple arrests. Christopher Perkins was identified as a primary suspect and arrested. Several others were charged as accessories after the fact. Does anyone have information about the events on Santa Anita Drive that evening or about the people involved?
