Devonta Hoskins was 17 when he was fatally shot in Dayton, Ohio, on March 15, 2016. He suffered a gunshot wound to the torso and was pronounced dead shortly after being driven to Good Samaritan Hospital. The shooting happened as a large crowd was dispersing after a fight at Residence Park; Hoskins was not involved in the fight and was struck by gunfire as people were leaving.

Dayton police investigated the case, followed leads and conducted interviews, but no arrests have been announced. The police report states Hoskins was shot by another person. His uncle, Patrick Greene, called for justice and noted Devonta had not yet begun his life. The investigation remains open and police are asking anyone with information to come forward.

If anyone knew Devonta or witnessed the shooting at Residence Park that night, can you provide information to Dayton police?
