Seventeen-year-old Calvin Dehuy Walker Jr., known to family as Jr., was shot and killed on May 6, 2023, near Northwest 10th Street and Air Depot Boulevard in Midwest City, Oklahoma. A sophomore at Douglas High School who had played football at Carl Albert High School and worked at Sonic, his family described him as outgoing, loving, and a role model to younger siblings and cousins.

According to family accounts, a disturbance erupted that night and gunfire followed; they say Calvin was an innocent bystander who was simply with friends. Nearby relatives had to take cover during the shooting and later found Calvin’s body. Midwest City police arrested a juvenile on a first-degree murder charge; that person’s identity has not been released because of their age. Another individual, Lorenzo Carlisle, was arrested on an accessory to murder charge. A Lyft driver reportedly recorded video of armed teenagers following the shooting.

Calvin’s family says they believe there is more to the story as they mourn a young man who had been looking forward to his graduation. If anyone knew Calvin, was in that area that night, or has information about what happened, please come forward.
