A late-night domestic disturbance on Mike Parra Road in Columbus, Mississippi, ended with a fatal shooting. Deputies found 26-year-old Joshua Kyzer in the front yard with a gunshot wound; first responders were not able to save him and he died at the scene on February 20, 2016. Joshua was a Senior Airman in the United States Air Force stationed in Pensacola, Florida and was visiting the area at the time.

The investigation resulted in the arrest of Joshua’s father, 55-year-old Randall Kyzer. He was charged with murder after the two were reported to have been involved in a heated argument while both were reportedly intoxicated. Court papers say Randall admitted to taking out a .22-caliber revolver intending to make his son leave; he told investigators the gun discharged accidentally when Joshua grabbed it. An autopsy was scheduled and Randall was held in the Lowndes County Adult Detention Center with bond set at $100,000.

If anyone knew Joshua or has information about the events that night, please share what you know.
