Davieon DaMichael Frazier was 17 when he was killed in a drive-by shooting on April 6, 2021, in the 900 block of Neptune Avenue in Akron, Ohio. Known as Dae-Dae, he was the eldest of six children and remembered by family and friends as an aspiring musician and athlete with a vibrant personality.

Davieon and another juvenile were shot; Davieon died at Akron Children’s Hospital and the other juvenile survived with injuries. Law enforcement investigated and arrested two suspects: 19-year-old Michael Lloyd Jr. of Akron, who was charged with aggravated murder and was arrested in Canton where a firearm was seized, and a juvenile who was charged with aggravated murder and felonious assault after being caught fleeing the scene at Mount Peace Cemetery. The U.S. Marshals Service of Northern Ohio assisted with the arrests.

Davieon’s family mourned his loss and has been active in honoring his memory and calling for an end to violence in the neighborhood. If anyone knew Davieon or has information about the shooting, please come forward to assist the investigation.
