Douglas John Kantor, 25, of Airmont, New York, was killed in a mass shooting on Austin’s Sixth Street on June 12, 2021. Visiting Austin from Michigan, Kantor was shot through the abdomen just below the rib cage and later died at Dell Seton Medical Center. He had recently completed a master’s degree in business and worked in the IT department at Ford Motor Company; he was engaged to his high school sweetheart of 10 years.

Austin police identified 19-year-old De’ondre White as the suspect and arrested him two days after the shooting in Killeen, Texas; he was charged with murder and ballistics testing linked the fatal shot to his weapon. The shooting injured at least 14 people. Two juveniles were initially arrested but had charges dropped after ballistics tied the killing to White. Authorities said the shooting followed an argument between two groups of teenagers from Killeen, and the Austin Police Department and Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission conducted a TRACE investigation.

Does anyone have further information about Douglas, his time in Austin that night, or witnesses who saw the argument leading up to the shooting?
