On October 19, 2018, 16-year-old Painesville Harvey High School student Yorry Timley was shot and killed in the 500 block of Mentor Avenue in Painesville, Ohio. Described by family as bright, warm and athletic in soccer and track, he was reportedly shot after an incident involving a PlayStation 4 that did not belong to him; his mother says Yorry had returned the PS4 to its rightful owner before the shooting.

Painesville police arrested a 17-year-old, identified as Christian Falu, and charged him with reckless homicide and tampering with evidence. The case moved from Lake County Juvenile Court to Lake County Common Pleas Court; in August 2019 Falu was sentenced to eight years in prison. Yorry’s family has spoken publicly about their grief and the way his death has changed their lives, and the community provided strong support afterward.
