Quran Eli Wallace was 21 when he was shot in Beckley, West Virginia, on Tuesday, June 20, 2023. Remembered by family as gentle and bright, he loved the outdoors, animals, and cars; he was a devoted father to his 2022-born daughter Lariyah and a parental figure to his partner’s children. Known by nicknames including Q the Kid and Ron Ron, he grew up in a faith-based home and enjoyed fishing and lake trips with his parents and younger sister.

Rushed to Raleigh General Hospital after the shooting, Quran later died while being transported to a Charleston facility. The Beckley Police Department opened a homicide investigation and publicly confirmed his identity a few days after the shooting but did not disclose the shooting location or identify any suspect. As of late June 2023 the case remained active and unsolved.

Did anyone in the Beckley area know Quran or see anything relevant to the shooting?
