Timothy Le-Land Michael Traynum was 21 when he was fatally shot twice in the back shortly after 11 p.m. on June 23, 2017, near Earl and Rogers streets in East Toledo. His body was discovered in a field next to the Weiler Homes. The shooting was recorded as the 22nd homicide in Toledo that year.

Timothy, born September 19, 1995, enjoyed playing football and spending time with friends. He attended Jesup W. Scott High School and later graduated from George Bush High School. He is survived by his daughter McKenzie Trayum, his mother Ronnell Mckinney, stepfather Willie McKinney, brother David Lewis, sister Zaina Traynum, and other family and friends.

Police have not identified a motive, and no arrests have been announced. In February 2023 Toledo police renewed a public appeal for information, offering anonymity and possible rewards through Crime Stoppers. Does anyone who knew Timothy or who was in East Toledo that night have information that could help bring justice?
