Vernon K. Haynes, a 27-year-old African American man, was shot outside the Cavalier Club in Cairo, Illinois, shortly before 4 a.m. on June 8, 2014. He was taken to a hospital in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, where he died of his injuries about an hour later. The Illinois State Police and the Cairo Police Department investigated, but there was no immediate announcement of arrests or charges and initial leads were limited.

Reports note a later criminal history connected to a Vernon Haynes in another state, but the facts above describe the June 8, 2014 killing in Cairo and the investigation status at the time. Are there witnesses or anyone with information about what happened outside the Cavalier Club that morning?
