Deandre Holmes, a 22-year-old Black man, was fatally shot on October 11, 2016, in Riviera Beach, Florida. The shooters crept into the backyard of a home at 360 W. 16th Way and fired multiple rounds through a rear bedroom window; Holmes was inside his girlfriend’s bedroom when he was struck. Police believe the attack was targeted and involved multiple shooters rather than being random.

Investigators tied the killing to ongoing disputes. Holmes had been shot in the leg on June 4, 2016, but refused to cooperate with that investigation, and his record included at least five Palm Beach County arrests, including for selling drugs. K9 units and follow-up leads were used, and police reported information about suspects’ possible whereabouts, but no arrests were announced immediately after the shooting. The case remains open as detectives seek more information and leads.

If anyone knew Deandre, his movements, or who might have targeted him, investigators want to hear from you.
