Demarao Alexander Gumby Jr was 15 when he died from gunshot wounds after a drive-by shooting on North 16th Street in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on June 18, 2022. He was taken to a nearby hospital and later died. Investigators say they do not believe he was the intended target.

Gumby had spent much of his childhood in foster care, moving through roughly 30 homes, and was preparing to be adopted by Shaquille Moore into a family that already included five children. He had just turned 15 on May 31 and was remembered by family as loving and protective; he enjoyed video games and time with friends. His parents are named Hermenia Puglia and Demarao A. Gumby Sr.

Two GoFundMe campaigns were set up to help with funeral costs. The shooting remains under investigation; no arrests or public suspect identifications have been announced. If anyone has information that could help the investigation, please come forward.
