A dispute over a vehicle at the Third Base Lounge in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, on the night of May 8–9, 2021, ended with 23-year-old Jermaine Taylor Red Watts shot and killed. Watts, a Black man from Gulfport, was found unresponsive at about 3:30 a.m. on Highway 90 with multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Witnesses said the confrontation began in the lounge parking lot; Joseph Alonzo Haynes approached Watts and fired a 9mm handgun multiple times, striking Watts four times. Testimony at trial established Watts was unarmed and that one fatal wound entered his back. In June 2023, after a three-day trial and about an hour of jury deliberation, Haynes was found guilty of manslaughter and taken into custody to await sentencing.

Does anyone have information about Watts, the parking lot confrontation, or witnesses who were there that night?
