Damelvion Green was a 15-year-old Black/African American freshman at Vincent High School who was shot and killed on the evening of June 9, 2025, on Milwaukee’s north side near North 45th Street and West Hampton Avenue. Police found Green critically wounded after shots were fired shortly after 6 p.m.; he was pronounced dead at the scene. A 13-year-old was also struck and taken for treatment and was expected to survive.

Early reports gave no clear account of what led to the shooting, whether either teenager was specifically targeted, or how many shooters were involved. Investigators described the person or people responsible only as unknown suspect or suspects. Green’s death occurred amid a cluster of shootings along the Hampton Avenue corridor, including a deadly shooting about a block away three days earlier, though reporting has not established a direct connection.

Family members remembered Green as a beloved son and nephew; relatives and friends held a balloon release four days after his death and an aunt organized a fundraiser to help cover funeral expenses. No suspect has been identified publicly and no arrest, charge, trial, or conviction is reported; the motive and identity of the shooter or shooters remain unanswered. Did anyone in the area that evening see something that could help investigators?
