Millyon Colquitt was 16 when he was killed on October 15, 2020, in Willowbrook, California. The shooting happened around 11 p.m. while Millyon was in a car with four other teenagers near East 122nd Street and Maple Avenue; an unknown assailant approached and opened fire as the vehicle moved slowly while the group looked for an address. The car was struck multiple times and later crashed into a parked vehicle at Maple Avenue and East 124th Street.

Millyon and his 17-year-old cousin, Jamelle Edward Hill Jr., were both found dead at the scene with multiple gunshot wounds to their upper torsos. Millyon was an 11th-grade student at Centennial High School in Compton and a varsity basketball player described as kindhearted, humorous, and generous. Jamelle was a senior at Gardena High School and a standout varsity football player who was being scouted by colleges.

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved a $10,000 reward for information leading to the gunman’s arrest. No arrests have been made and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Homicide Bureau continues to investigate. If anyone knew Millyon or Jamelle or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
