On May 14, 2015, 22-year-old Christopher Jaqua Catchings was shot to death in Jackson, Mississippi. He was found with a fatal gunshot wound to the chest after an altercation described as stemming from a dispute between two men over a woman. Witnesses at the scene provided information that identified 21-year-old Joshua Taylor as a suspect; reports say Taylor and Catchings had been involved in an ongoing dispute and that Taylor allegedly shot Catchings multiple times during the confrontation.

After the shooting, Taylor reportedly barricaded himself inside a nearby home, leading to a standoff that drew the Jackson Police Department’s SWAT team. Two other people who were inside the home were taken into custody for questioning, but Taylor escaped and fled the scene. Authorities described him as armed and dangerous and appealed to the public for help locating him. As of the most recent information, no arrests have been made and the investigation remains open.

Does anyone have information about Christopher Catchings, Joshua Taylor, or the events in Jackson on May 14, 2015?
