On the night of December 5, 2017, 17-year-old JaDonte Hancock was killed during a home invasion in Nashville, Tennessee. Two men forced their way into the Hancock family home, confronted JaDonte, his parents, and his grandfather, and demanded money. JaDonte fought back to protect his family; during the struggle one intruder fired a handgun, striking him in the chest. JaDonte later died of the wound. His stepfather was pistol-whipped but survived. The suspects fled without taking anything from the house.

Police described one suspect as wearing a red beanie and a red jacket and appearing intoxicated; the other wore a mask and all-black clothing. The family remembers JaDonte as a bright, positive young man who had recently started a job to buy Christmas presents. No public announcement of arrests has been made and the case remains open.

Did anyone in the Nashville area see or hear anything that night or have information about the two men who entered the Hancock home?
