Fatal Coahoma County shooting death of Keyshawn Hunt
A 19-year-old man from Mississippi has been confirmed deceased following a fatal shooting incident that originated from an argument at a drag racing competition. Law enforcement agents from the Coahoma County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to an incident reported on Bruister Road on August 23. Sources informed them that a gunshot suspect and an injured individual were located nearby. Arriving at the scene, responders found a poorly operating crimson automobile and a casualty suffering from gunfire in a nearby field close to the junction of Prairie Place Road and Gibbons Road. Paramedics conveyed the injured Keyshawn Hunt, who was nineteen years old, to a nearby medical establishment, but he tragically passed away from his wounds. Further investigation revealed that Keyshawn Hunt, a student whose name is frequently discussed online in Mississippi, had been arrested previously on accusations of threatening his schoolmates and firing shots towards a school bus. Hunt’s untimely death occurred after he was found unconscious, but the causes related to that finding are not the focus of this report. According to reports provided by investigators, Keyshawn Hunt was present at a motor vehicle racing event in a nearby county known as Tallahatchie when a confrontation developed, which unfortunately resulted in shots being fired. While attempting to depart the area, Hunt and the other individuals involved were unfortunately exposed to crossfire near the site where his automobile was located. Individuals present during the incident relayed information suggesting the shooters might have been driving a dark-colored Chevrolet Malibu or Impala.
