Jessica Doty Whitaker was 24 when she was killed in Indianapolis in the early hours of July 5, 2020. She had been walking along the Canal Walk with her fiancé, Jose Ramirez, and two friends when a verbal confrontation with another group escalated. Ramirez says the dispute began after a slang racial slur was used, and that the other group shouted Black Lives Matter while someone in Whitaker’s group replied All Lives Matter.

Minutes later, while walking under a bridge, shots were fired from a distance. Whitaker was struck and later died at a nearby hospital; her fiancé returned fire but reported he did not see who he was shooting at. Detectives released surveillance footage and asked for witnesses, and the family has called for FBI involvement, but no arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

What details do readers recognize from that night, or did anyone see people on the Canal Walk around 3 a.m. on July 5, 2020 who haven’t spoken to investigators?
