Chin Il Shin, a 43-year-old Asian man from Fort Worth, Texas, was shot and killed on August 15, 2022, after a confrontation that followed a minor traffic collision on South University Drive. Surveillance footage and police reports say Shin’s Jeep collided with a Hyundai Elantra, an argument followed, and several people soon surrounded Shin near his vehicle. He was struck in the back of the head, prevented from re-entering his car, and—while holding a handgun and attempting to walk away—was pursued.

Authorities report that Markynn Dmorous West, 28, drew a handgun and fired multiple shots, leaving Shin on a median with fatal torso wounds; the Tarrant County Medical Examiner ruled the cause of death gunshot wounds. Fort Worth police arrested West on a murder charge; three more suspects—Kameron Nathan Taylor, Quamon Deshun White, and Keeton Sheppard—were later charged in connection with the killing, and West was released on bond.

Shin was remembered by friends and members of the Asian-American community as a pillar who helped local business owners and supported charities. If anyone witnessed the shooting or the events leading up to the collision, can you share what you saw or know?
