On the morning of August 16, 2017, 22-year-old Dante Lanier Hall was found dead inside a home in Birmingham’s Powderly neighborhood. He and 20-year-old DeJohn Lewis Williams were each discovered with a single gunshot wound after police answered reports of gunfire. Authorities described the scene as a cold and calculated shooting and noted a small quantity of drugs and paraphernalia in the residence.

Police did not release information about suspects or a motive, and the investigation was reported as ongoing. Public updates since then have not indicated arrests or officially named suspects, leaving the case unresolved and the families without closure.

If anyone knew Dante or DeJohn, or has information about what happened that morning, please share what you know with Birmingham police.
