On the evening of July 1, 2023, 35-year-old African American man Donelle Hunter was fatally shot near his home in Pompano Beach, Florida. The shooting occurred at about 6:20 p.m. at the intersection of Northwest 17th Terrace and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard as Hunter left his residence and walked toward a nearby corner store. He was conscious when his mother arrived but later died after being taken to Broward Health North.

Hunter’s mother, Burnadette Lucas, described him as a quiet person and publicly appealed for information, calling the killing senseless and urging anyone who knows anything to come forward. On October 16, 2023, the Broward Sheriff’s Office arrested 24-year-old Jaquan Brown of Lauderhill and charged him with first-degree murder and violation of probation; he was booked into Broward Main Jail. Authorities have not released a motive.

Does anyone in Pompano Beach have information about Hunter’s movements that evening or the people he might have encountered?
