Paris Matthews

Do you know who murdered Paris Quentin Matthews in 2013?
On April 29, 2013, 33-year-old Paris Quentin Matthews was shot and killed in Ocean City, Florida, at the Rene Lynn Apartments on Woodham Street. The incident occurred around midnight, when two unidentified men knocked on Matthews' door. As he opened it, the men forced their way inside, shooting Matthews once. Despite attempting to flee out the front door, he collapsed at the threshold and later succumbed to his injuries at Fort Walton Beach Medical Center.

The suspects, described as two men with partially covered faces—one identified as a black male and the other as either a light-skinned black male or white male—were seen fleeing the scene on foot on the north side of the apartment complex. Despite several interviews conducted by the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office and repeated appeals for public information, the case remains unsolved. Authorities continue to encourage anyone with knowledge about the case to come forward, hoping to bring some resolution to this tragic crime.

The investigation into Matthews' murder remains active, and the Sheriff's Office, along with Emerald Coast Crime Stoppers, offers avenues for people to provide information anonymously. The lack of concrete leads has been a major obstacle, but law enforcement is determined to keep pursuing any new information that might surface.
