Zykari Rhone was 18 when he was shot and killed in Durham, North Carolina on November 16, 2018. Officers responded to a shots-fired call around 10:30 p.m. in the 600 block of Dowd Street and found Rhone outside; he was pronounced dead at the scene with multiple gunshot wounds.

Investigators say the victim and the suspects knew each other and that the shooting was believed to stem from prior conflicts. Four men were indicted and arrested months later: Ricky Shyiem Kashan Barfield, 25; Robert Louis Pridgen Jr., 28; Ortez Lavelle Richardson, 25; and Troy Lekemn Howard, 18. Each faced murder charges and additional offenses; all were held in Durham County Jail without bond while investigators sought a fifth person reportedly involved.

If anyone has information about Rhone, the people involved, or the events on Dowd Street that night, please come forward.
