Donte Deshawn McCarther was a 21-year-old Black man from Oklahoma City who was shot dead in the breezeway of an apartment complex on the northwest side on January 17, 2012. Officers responding to reports of gunfire at 1411 North Council Road found him lying near the entrance; witnesses described hearing three sharp shots and seeing two people hurry into a car and drive away.

Initial investigators had little besides that fleeting description of the vehicle and the two occupants. On January 26, 2012, police announced the arrest of Brandon Dawson in connection with the shooting but said he may not have acted alone. In early March 2012 a second arrest followed when officers stopped a car matching the witness description and took driver Larry Clayborn into custody.

Are there readers who remember the complex or the night of January 17, 2012, and can add any details that might help clarify what happened?
