In the early morning hours of August 5, 2017, 25-year-old Shane Lamont Webb, a Black man, was killed by a gunshot to the head in a parking lot on the 1100 block of Broadway Avenue West in Minneapolis. The shooting occurred just before 3 a.m.; a woman was also struck in the arm and was expected to survive.

The attack was described as targeted and tied to a violent gang war in North Minneapolis. Webb was identified as a member of the Tre Tre Crips. The man who fired the fatal shot was identified as 31-year-old Hakeem Malik Dontae Flax, alleged to be affiliated with the rival 1-9 Block Dipset Gang and described as a shooter who protected drug trafficking operations and targeted rivals.

Federal authorities investigated the case with local police; Flax was arrested and prosecuted federally in connection with the violent drug-trafficking conspiracy that produced the shooting. Is anyone familiar with Shane, his activities in North Minneapolis, or the circumstances that night?
