Xavier Lewis Jr., a 22-year-old resident of Orlando, Florida, tragically lost his life on December 4, 2021. The incident occurred outside the Mercy Market on Mercy Drive, where Lewis was standing with friends. Just two days after celebrating his birthday, he was shot in a drive-by shooting. The vehicle involved drove by the market and opened fire on the group, hitting Lewis.
He was subsequently taken to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The Orlando Police Department has been actively investigating the case, seeking the public's assistance in identifying the suspect or suspects involved. Despite the release of surveillance footage showing the suspect's vehicle, no arrests have been made, and the motive behind the shooting remains unclear. The police have urged anyone with information to come forward, offering a reward for tips leading to an arrest.
The investigation into Xavier Lewis Jr.'s death has been challenging due to the lack of clear evidence and witnesses. The community and law enforcement continue to seek justice for Lewis, hoping that new leads will emerge to solve this tragic case.
