DeAngelo Martezes Cain, 33, was shot and killed on October 28, 2017, at the Sun Inn in western Birmingham. Known as Dee, he is remembered for his smile, sense of humor, loyalty, and the time he spent with family, friends, and his dogs. He is survived by a daughter, his parents, and a sister.

Authorities arrested 36-year-old Anthony Lanard Carter II and charged him with intentional murder. Police say a witness reported the confrontation began when Carter initiated an altercation that escalated and ended with Cain being shot; reports noted the dispute may have involved a woman. As the case approached trial in November 2018, the Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office asked for the case to be dismissed after efforts to locate and serve a necessary witness failed, and a judge granted that dismissal. The DA’s office said it could revive the case if the witness is later found.

Did anyone in the Birmingham area see or hear anything the night of October 28, 2017, that could help locate that missing witness?
