Christopher Columbus Knight, 49, of Grand Bay, Alabama, was killed on June 18, 2014, after an exchange of gunfire on Roberts Road in the Escatawpa community of Jackson County, Mississippi. The confrontation began earlier that day as a workplace altercation between Knight and 47-year-old co-worker Lanis L. Chapman of Citronelle, Alabama, and continued after their shift ended when the two men left work and drove to a less-traveled stretch of road. Deputies described the incident as a mutual shootout; Knight was shot while still in his car, which then rolled forward and struck a power pole, and he was later pronounced dead of gunshot wounds. Chapman was found wounded in the passenger side of his own vehicle and was taken to Singing River Hospital in stable condition.

The sheriff did not identify the workplace or the dispute’s exact cause, and early reports treated the scene as a double shooting stemming from an exchange of gunfire. Knight was buried at Moffettville Cemetery in Mobile County, Alabama. Did anyone who knew Knight or Chapman have details about where they worked or what sparked the argument?
