Raji Raven Hickenbottom, 19, of Uniontown, Pennsylvania, died on August 9, 2017, after being shot in the chest during a street fight that began as a verbal argument at a house party. A 16-year-old, Kaii McCargo, reportedly picked up a gun during the altercation and fired the fatal shot. Hickenbottom was taken to Uniontown Hospital and pronounced dead.

McCargo was taken into custody and charged with criminal homicide and possessing a gun as a minor; he waived the homicide charges and agreed to transfer his case to juvenile court. Raji Raven Hickenbottom was the brother of 12-year-old Michael Ellerby, who was shot and killed by Uniontown State Police in 2002, and the family had previously settled a lawsuit related to Michael’s death.

What details about the night or witnesses have not yet been shared that might help explain how the argument escalated to deadly gunfire?
