Last month, officers were called to Joseph E. Boone Blvd. near Vine Street for a car crashed into a power pole. When they got there, they found the driver, 37-year-old Joseph Williams, had been shot.
Williams was rushed to the hospital, but later died from his injuries.

After the shooting, investigators released surveillance footage of a man in a ski mask walking around a convenience store. It’s unclear if that person was Fair.
