Sheldon Earl, 23, was shot and killed on August 10, 2015, at Meadowcreek Park in Lancaster, Texas. About 40 to 50 people were at the park; at approximately 8:30 p.m. a car with at least three people inside drove past and several shots were fired. Earl was hit twice, taken to a nearby hospital, and died of his wounds. One of his siblings was at the park but not injured.

Investigators treated the shooting as gang-related but said it was unclear whether Earl was specifically targeted or an unintended victim. Law enforcement identified three suspects believed to have been in a white Chevrolet Caprice and were also searching for a second vehicle. A house in Lancaster was connected to the inquiry, and detectives spent hours at the scene collecting evidence.

Earl was remembered as a standout point guard for Lancaster High School and for his easy-going personality. Does anyone who knew Sheldon or who was at Meadowcreek Park that night have information to share with investigators?
