Kevin Devon Wallace Sr., 42, was shot and killed on January 13, 2023, in a parking lot on the 6900 block of Brooklyn Boulevard in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. Officers found Wallace shortly after 3 p.m. with a gunshot wound to the abdomen; he was taken to North Memorial Health in Robbinsdale and died there at 5:45 p.m. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide.

Nearby St. Alphonsus Catholic School briefly locked down after the shooting. A memorial page created for Wallace shows more than a thousand candles and remembrances from friends and family who describe him as kind, caring, and a devoted provider and protector, and he is survived by his children.

If anyone saw the shooting or has information about who fled the parking lot that afternoon, please come forward.
