Tyvien McLean was 12 when he was fatally shot in his Durham, North Carolina, apartment on July 14, 2020. The bullet entered through his second-floor window at the Cornwallis Road public housing complex at about 2:30 a.m.; he was taken to the hospital, placed on life support, and died a few days later. An adult suffered minor injuries in the same incident.

Police say the shot came during an exchange of gunfire between two groups with possible gang ties outside the complex. The shooting was described as part of a wider rise in gun violence in Durham, and the community held a vigil where family, friends, and local leaders called for greater safety.

No arrests have been announced and the case remains open as investigators ask the public for information. Did anyone in Durham see or hear anything that night or know who might be responsible?
