Dewayne D. Crawford Jr. was a 33-year-old Black man killed in Birmingham after a late-October 2011 shooting that began during an ordinary drive and ended with him being rushed back to his neighborhood. Investigators say Crawford was in a vehicle on the 200 block of 3rd Avenue West when gunfire came from another car described as a white Impala. A witness riding with him reported the shots came without warning; Crawford was struck but initially alive. The witness drove him to Elyton Village near Legion Field instead of to a hospital, and officers later found the severity of his injury at a parking lot on 2nd Street West.

Crawford died of the gunshot wound. Public appeals asked whether the shooting was random, whether someone else was the intended target, and what preceded the attack. A death notice records a memorial service on Tuesday, November 8, 2011. No suspect from the white Impala has been publicly identified in connection with the killing.

If anyone knew Dewayne, his movements that night, or saw a white Impala in that area, what can you share?
