Fifteen-year-old Jauquavous Whitehead was killed on the evening of January 31, 2018, in Greenwood, Mississippi. A sophomore at Amanda Elzy High School described as quiet and sweet, he was an innocent bystander when gunfire erupted about 8:30 p.m. outside the Brazil Homes office on Browning Road. Whitehead was struck by two bullets, one to the neck and one to the side, and died at the scene.

Authorities said the shooting appeared tied to a drug-related turf dispute that had already produced other violence in the area. The Leflore County Sheriff, Ricky Banks, noted Whitehead had no history with law enforcement and was not involved in that conflict. In the days after the killing, a 24-year-old woman and two 18-year-old men were taken into custody for questioning; their names were not released.

Did anyone in Greenwood at the time see or hear anything that could help explain what happened that night?
