Daniel Lee Young, a 40-year-old Black man, died late on July 11, 2017, after a family trip turned violent along Interstate 75 near Byron in Peach County, Georgia. The family had been driving from Orlando to Birmingham when long-simmering tension between Daniel and his son, Deontae Leqwan Young, boiled over. The family pulled over shortly before midnight; the argument continued on the shoulder, became physical, and Deontae fired two shots, one striking Daniel in the chest. Daniel collapsed in a lane of traffic and died soon afterward despite emergency crews being called.

Reports say eight people were in the SUV, including three children younger than five and Daniel’s wife. Investigators said Daniel was not armed and that initial interviews were confused about who fired the gun, though authorities later identified Deontae as the sole suspect. He was charged with murder within days and a Peach County grand jury indicted him in early 2018.

If anyone in the family, the vehicle, or who drove that stretch of I-75 that night has information, please share what you know.
