On March 21, 2018, 27-year-old Rodrique Dshaun Watson of Natchez, Mississippi, was killed by gunfire in the parking lot of the Zipy gas station on Old Washington Road. Reports say the incident was a chaotic shootout that may have involved as many as four people; Watson was identified as one of the shooters and was struck during the exchange.

Investigators arrested several men after the shooting. Da’Larren White, 25 at the time, was arrested after being treated for injuries at the University of Mississippi Medical Center and was charged with murder. Two others, 24-year-old Keith Burns and 25-year-old Gregory Hammett, were charged with tampering with evidence, accused of removing Watson’s weapon from the scene. White was indicted and went to trial; an Adams County jury returned a not guilty verdict for White on September 18, 2020. The outcomes of the tampering charges against Burns and Hammett are not publicly documented.

Are there details about the night at the Zipy or witnesses who haven’t been heard from that could help clarify what happened?
