Joshua Chaney was 18 when he was found shot to death on a dirt path next to a house on Martin Luther King Drive in Canton, Mississippi, in the early morning hours of February 20, 2017. Authorities reported he had been struck by an estimated four to five gunshot wounds. He did not live in the neighborhood where his body was discovered, and the motive and why he was in that area were not clear in the immediate aftermath.

The shooting was Canton’s second homicide of 2017 and unnerved residents in a residential area described as home to families and children. A nearby grocery store owner said he had seen Chaney the weekend before the murder. Canton Police detectives opened an investigation and appealed to the public for information; no suspects or arrests were publicly disclosed as of the reporting.

Does anyone have information about Joshua Chaney’s movements in Canton or that neighborhood around February 20, 2017?
