Javon Tyrell Burnett Sr., 26, was killed on Easter Sunday, April 1, 2018, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. His body was found between two buildings at The Summit at Ridgewood Apartments around 10 a.m. that morning. The medical and crime scene information states Burnett had been shot 13 times, and investigators determined the shooter fired at least 20 rounds.

The investigation produced arrests. Tyrion McNair, 25 at the time, was placed at the scene by prosecutors through evidence and eyewitness accounts; after a trial that concluded in January 2019, a jury found McNair guilty of Burnett’s murder following about four and a half hours of deliberation. Another man, 21-year-old Joshua Smiley, pleaded guilty to assisting a criminal for his role in the events and was sentenced to three years in prison.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who remember activity around The Summit at Ridgewood Apartments that morning?
