Seventeen-year-old Kevin Darnell Guy III was fatally shot on the evening of April 30, 2024, near West Umstead and South Streets in Durham, North Carolina. Officers answering reports of gunfire around 9:54 p.m. found Kevin and an adult woman with gunshot wounds; both were taken to a nearby hospital and Kevin died there, while the woman’s injuries were described as non-life-threatening.

Kevin’s family remembered him as outgoing, funny, and passionate about rap music; his mother, Dominique Lamberth, said she listens to his music now to feel connected. A week earlier he had attended prom with his girlfriend. That same night a nearby residence was struck by more than 20 bullets and a woman inside was injured when rounds penetrated her home. The shootings were part of a series of incidents in Durham that evening.

No arrests or suspects have been announced and the Durham Police Department says the investigation is active. If anyone has information that could help solve Kevin’s killing, please contact investigators.
