Kendrick Pope was 16 when he was found shot to death on September 11, 2008, behind the former Jefferson Montessori School in the 1200 block of North Euclid Avenue in Dayton, Ohio. Reports say he had been stripped of his pants and shoes and shot up to eleven times in the chest and torso. The killing occurred in an area already suffering a surge of homicides that year.

Five days later, on what would have been Kendrick’s 17th birthday, family and friends gathered for a peace vigil that turned tragic when Kendrick’s father, Dwight Hardy, was shot and killed and another man, Augustine Ubaike Jr., was wounded. No arrests have been announced in either Kendrick’s slaying or the subsequent shooting at the vigil, and the Dayton Police Department continues to seek information.

Does anyone who knew Kendrick or attended that vigil have details that could help investigators?
