A New Iberia neighborhood was rocked by overnight gunfire on November 15, 2017. Davon Thompson, 37, a Black man, was found fatally shot at the corner of Mississippi and Cletus Streets late that Wednesday night. Deputies had responded earlier that evening to two separate reports of shots fired on Mississippi Street where no victims were located, and two other men reportedly arrived at a local hospital with gunshot wounds the same night.

The Iberia Parish Sheriff’s Office opened an investigation into all three incidents to determine how they were connected. Accessible memorial pages name Carlos Heard as having been charged in Thompson’s killing, but available details do not describe the circumstances of the shooting, the relationship between Thompson and the alleged suspect, or the status of any legal proceedings.

Are there residents or witnesses from that neighborhood who can add details about the events of November 15, 2017, or the investigation that followed?
