Kendrick Hughes was 30 when he was killed in a daylight shooting at Pine Ridge Apartments in Jackson, Mississippi. On September 17, 2017, a male assailant wearing a Jason Voorhees or Friday the 13th–style mask stepped out from behind an apartment building, opened fire on three people who were together, and then ran off on foot. Hughes was fatally wounded; two others were injured. The Jackson Police Department treated the case as the city’s 44th homicide of the year and opened an investigation.

Investigators said motive was not immediately clear and focused on identifying the masked shooter. If anyone knew Kendrick, was at Pine Ridge Apartments that day, or has information about the masked gunman, please share what can help the investigation.
