Major Whitley, 41, was found dead in a yard on Walton Avenue in Cleveland’s Clark-Fulton neighborhood on August 17, 2022. The medical examiner confirmed his death after neighbors reported hearing gunshots the night before following an argument that escalated outside.

Whitley’s wife publicly urged whoever was responsible to turn themselves in, saying they knew who was behind the shooting. The family and community have mourned publicly; his sister organized a GoFundMe for funeral expenses and Crimestoppers announced a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

Whitley was described by those who knew him as a family man who loved music. What details about the argument or potential witnesses have not yet been made public?
