Parris J. Lane was 19 when he was killed on November 8, 2017. A Black/African American man from Allentown who worked in construction and took part in the local Youth Building Project, Lane was fatally shot in a lot across from City Hall near Hamilton Tower.

The family later suffered another loss when Parris’s brother, Najeer Lane, was killed years afterward; that separate case resulted in convictions for some involved parties.

If anyone has memories of Parris, saw the area on November 8, 2017, or has information about the case, please share what is known.
