Anthony Dwight Lucas was 32 when he was killed on the evening of Friday, February 4, 2005. Lucas was the part-time police chief of French Camp and a full-time parole and probation officer with the Mississippi Department of Corrections, where he had worked for seven years. He was married and left behind a 5-year-old son.

The fatal shooting occurred after Lucas joined Choctaw County officers in pursuing a vehicle that failed to stop. The chase ended at a residence on Whites Road in Weir. Four juveniles fled the vehicle; three went into the house and one ran down the road. A 16-year-old male emerged from the house and fired a shotgun, striking Lucas.

The teenager, identified as Christopher Fair, was arrested and later tried. A jury convicted him of capital murder and sentenced him to life in prison. Was anyone in the area that night able to see the chase or what happened at the Whites Road residence?
