Body
At about 1 a.m. on Friday, June 24, Beaumont police responded to the 200 block of Alabama Avenue in reference to shots fired.
When officers arrived, they located a gold Chevrolet Malibu parked in a vacant lot. Officers discovered several bullet holes in the vehicle, then followed evidence from the vehicle. That led them to a gunshot victim, identified as Ronald Bob, a short distance away.
“Beaumont EMS arrived on scene and pronounced the victim deceased,” BPD reported. “Detectives are asking anyone in the area of the 300 block of Alabama, as well as the 200 block of Garland (and surrounding blocks) to search surveillance cameras for any footage that could assist the investigation.
