Ullesis Keanu, 19, was found dead in the early hours of Wednesday, June 14, 2017, lying on the pavement at the intersection of B.Y. Williams Sr. Drive and Court R in Birmingham, Alabama. A passerby discovered Keanu and alerted authorities; Birmingham police and fire and rescue crews arrived around 12:30 a.m. and pronounced him dead at the scene from a fatal gunshot wound.

Investigators were working to determine a motive and identify those responsible; at the time of the initial reports no suspects had been publicly identified or taken into custody.
