DeNovist Wayne Hall, 31, was fatally shot on April 26, 2021, in Houston, Texas. The shooting happened in a parking lot at an apartment complex in North Harris County while Hall was walking; he was struck 19 times and continued to be shot after he fell to the ground. A 4-year-old girl was also wounded as an innocent bystander.

The suspect, 26-year-old Dornell Jenkins, was arrested and charged with murder. Jenkins was already out on bond for a prior assault charge at the time of this shooting and was denied bond and held without bail after the murder charge. Investigators reported Jenkins had a history of violent behavior, including an assault charge for impeding the breath of a family member, and that the shooting occurred during a struggle involving his ex-girlfriend.

The killing and the child’s injury have had a strong impact on the local community. Does anyone have information about Hall, the apartment complex, or what led up to the confrontation that day?
