On New Year’s Eve 2016 in Kansas City, Missouri, 23-year-old DeSean L. Parker was shot and killed near Ninth Street and Broadway. According to reports, several men opened fire at about 9 p.m., striking Parker and two companions, a man and a woman. The two survivors were taken to a local hospital; Parker was pronounced dead at the scene. His death was recorded as the city’s 126th homicide that year.

Parker was a father of four who enjoyed rapping and dancing and was remembered as humble with a bright smile. His mother, Rashawnda Townsend, said he had been robbed the morning of the killing and believes he was lured by a phone call from a woman who gave him an address to recover stolen items. Detectives urged witnesses to come forward, and as of June 2017 no arrests had been announced.

Does anyone have information about the shooting near Ninth and Broadway that night or knew DeSean Parker?
