JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Mention the name Ken Knight and many people think of the street Ken Knight Drive, a thoroughfare in a predominantly Black neighborhood in Northwest Jacksonville.
But Ken Knight Drive is named after Adrian Kenneth Knight, a legendary broadcaster who broke barriers in radio and television broadcasting. His niece Martha Washington George is a radio historian who says her uncle got his start at a Daytona Beach country radio station in 1947. He had a significant following that got the attention of people in Atlanta.
Jacksonville police are investigating the Tuesday-evening discovery of a young man s body in the 7200 block of East Ken Knight Drive not far from where another shooting took place three days earlier.
Officers were called about 6:30 p.m. to a report of multiple shots fired, which was soon upgraded to someone being shot. When they got there, they found the victim in the middle of Wrico Drive and a large gathering of people, according to the incident report.
The report also lists motor vehicle under the category of weapons involved, so the circumstances remain unclear. The Sheriff s Office lists the case as a homicide pending classification and that the man killed was 19. It also lists the location as Ken Knight Drive, which intersects with Wrico.
