On the afternoon of January 13, 2016, 18-year-old Darnell Kapri Wilkerson was shot and killed in East New York, Brooklyn, near Livonia and Pennsylvania Avenues close to the former Thomas Jefferson High School. He had been there to meet his 16-year-old sister, a student at the school. Surveillance video from nearby buildings recorded the shooting.

Police say 17-year-old Malik Streat shot Wilkerson in the head, then shot him a second time after he fell, and fled. Officers arrested Streat a few blocks away and recovered a .38 caliber pistol. At trial, a jury convicted Streat of second-degree murder and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon; on November 21, 2016, he received a sentence of 21 years to life. The sentence was handed down in Brooklyn Supreme Court by Justice Alexander B. Jeong.
