Khalique J. Welch was 29 when he was fatally shot on June 28, 2014, during a gathering in Ocoee, Florida. Born March 16, 1985, in Far Rockaway, New York, he was raised in Orlando by his mother, Cynthia Johnson and performed locally under the stage name BEN-G, building a notable following in the area.

Khalique was pronounced dead at the scene. Early reports say the circumstances were unclear and the investigation struggled without witnesses willing to come forward. There were no immediate arrests, and police continued to seek leads as the case remained open.

Khalique’s music and community presence are still remembered. Does anyone have information about that night or Khalique’s activities in Ocoee leading up to June 28, 2014?
