Raytrell Benjamin, 23, was shot and killed on February 21, 2019, while sitting in the driver’s seat of a van outside his family’s home in the Summit-University neighborhood of Saint Paul. Police were called about shots fired around 8:45 p.m. on Carroll Avenue between Grotto and Avon streets; officers found Benjamin with a gunshot wound to the head and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Family members described Benjamin as a beloved brother, son, and uncle. He attended St. Paul’s Central High School and graduated from Gordon Parks High School in 2014. The shooting left the community grieving and relatives called for justice.

The case remains an open investigation with no arrests announced and no information released about suspects or motives. Can anyone with information about what happened that night or Benjamin’s movements please come forward?
