On November 14, 2019, 22-year-old Darius L. Bolden was fatally shot while a passenger in a vehicle on Hollow Creek Road in Lexington, Kentucky. The driver sped away after a man approached the car and fired multiple rounds; Bolden suffered a gunshot wound to the head and died that evening at the University of Kentucky Chandler Hospital.
Bolden, known as D-Man, was a father to two young children, Xavien and Aubree, and a 2015 graduate of Bryan Station High School. He enjoyed fishing, working on cars with his brothers, and cooking for his family. His death was recorded as the 21st homicide in Lexington for 2019.
Investigators identified 31-year-old Demarcus Raymond Depree Hill, known as Spice, as a suspect. The vehicle’s driver identified Hill in a photo lineup, another witness named Spice as the shooter, and Hill’s aunt confirmed that nickname. An active warrant led to Hill’s arrest on charges of murder, wanton endangerment, and possession of heroin.
If anyone knew Darius, his routines, or saw activity on Hollow Creek Road that night, please come forward with information.
