On the night of October 1, 2017, a spree of random shooting in Natchez, Mississippi, ended with 34-year-old Richard Frazier dead inside his car on West Stiers Lane. His vehicle was riddled with bullet holes and an autopsy recorded multiple gunshot wounds as the cause of death. Frazier was a father of two and had no known gang ties; people who knew him described him as generous and kindhearted.

Police say a group of men in a white Chevrolet truck fired more than 130 rounds from a high-powered assault rifle while driving through the city. Investigators focused on that truck and identified several suspects. Harry Kenyon Smith Jr., 20, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in connection with Frazier’s death and received a 40-year prison sentence. Others involved were convicted on aggravated assault charges and given prison terms ranging from 15 to 20 years.

What details about that night or the white Chevrolet truck might still help explain how an innocent man became a target?
