DeQuincey Williams, a 30-year-old Black man from Dallas, was found unresponsive in the grassy area of the 8000 block of Rothington Road near South Buckner on May 11, 2018. Officers discovered multiple gunshot wounds; Dallas Fire and Rescue pronounced him dead at the scene. Investigators believe Williams may have been shot the night before his body was found.

The killing was the second murder on that block within a month, and neighbors said violent incidents were becoming too common in the area. Williams is remembered by family as a son, brother and father; his obituary notes he accepted Christ early and attended A. Maceo Smith High School. He is survived by his mother, Gloria Wilson-Williams, his father, Robert Weaver, Sr., and his daughter, Journie Mo’nae Williams.

The Dallas Police Department opened an investigation to identify suspects and gather evidence; no arrests or charges were disclosed. Did anyone in the area see or hear anything on Rothington Road around May 10–11, 2018?
