Very little information about Cedric Maurice Brown's, aka 'Paw' life, is available online. He was only 22 when he became a victim of gun violence. Cedric was born and raised in New Orleans and was the father to one child. He had so many family and friends who loved him.

On Friday, September 7, 2012, around 9:30 pm, authorities responded to a report of gunfire in the 6700 block of Maumus Avenue in Lower Algiers. They found Cedric lying near a bike at the corner of Maumus Avenue and Mansfield Avenue. He had been shot to death.

Investigators are still looking for possible suspects and motives, and no arrests have been made. This case is still open.
