Tyree Parks, an 18-year-old from South Philadelphia, was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting on the evening of January 22, 2010. He had just learned of his acceptance to Bloomsburg University and was a standout defensive lineman at South Philadelphia High School who also coached a youth basketball team. He was returning home from Audenreid High School with his nephew and two other teenagers after a coaching session when the shooting occurred.

Police believed the attack was retaliatory for a prior altercation, though the specifics of that dispute were unclear at the time. No arrests had been announced immediately after the killing. Parks is remembered by family and community members as a hopeful, smiling young athlete determined to pursue education and keep away from the streets.

If anyone knew Tyree, saw him the night of January 22, 2010, or has information about the earlier altercation, can you share what you know?
