Jakeba Keshawn Henry, a 25-year-old African American man from Durham, North Carolina, was shot on December 23, 2015, and later died of his injuries. Officers first responded to a shooting call at 6:17 p.m. at Grace Lane and Liberty Street, where they found an adult male with a leg gunshot wound who was taken to hospital. Shortly afterward police discovered Henry on Commerce Street with gunshot wounds; he was transported to hospital and later succumbed.

Investigators determined Henry and the other wounded man had been together when the shooting occurred on Commerce Street. Durham police identified 26-year-old William Devoil Allen Jr. as a suspect and sought his capture on a murder charge; Allen was also wanted on counts of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill and robbery with a dangerous weapon. The department asked anyone with information about Allen’s whereabouts to contact Investigator J. Barr or CrimeStoppers.

Does anyone in the Durham area have information about the shooting or about William Devoil Allen Jr. that could help investigators?
