Richard Taylor was 18 when he was killed in a drive‑by shooting in Indianapolis in the early morning hours of Saturday, August 5, 2006. He and 23‑year‑old Antonio Jones were shot when gunfire struck a car carrying four men who had been at the same downtown nightclub; two other occupants, Andrew Swanigan and Steven Foor, were also shot but survived. Earlier that night nearby, 26‑year‑old Maurice White had been found shot to death in his car in an alley behind the club.

The Indianapolis Police Department publicly identified Cortez Cunningham as a suspect and sought him on warrants for two counts of murder and two counts of aggravated assault in the Delaware Street shootings. Police suggested the cluster of killings that weekend may have been tied to retaliatory gang activity and noted the shootings were part of a larger spike in violence that prompted city officials to declare an extreme emergency.

If anyone remembers Richard, his friends that night, or saw activity on Delaware Street that morning, please share what you know.
