Thirteen-year-old Deshon DuBose was fatally shot in Atlanta on the night of January 21, 2023, after a dispute between two groups in the parking lot of Cascade Family Skating. Deshon, a seventh grader at Drew Charter School known by classmates as a gentle giant and nicknamed grandfather, had permission from his mother to attend a teen night at the rink. He was struck by multiple gunshots, taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, and died of his injuries.

Atlanta police released surveillance footage showing a large group fighting just before the shooting and one person running from the scene carrying a gun; investigators asked the public to identify individuals seen in the video. In March 2023 a 16-year-old, Chiurazzi Bailey Jr., was arrested and later indicted on multiple counts including first-degree murder, aggravated assault, and cruelty to children; he pleaded not guilty in August 2023.

Anyone who was at the Cascade skating event that night or who recognizes people in the released footage is asked to come forward with information.
