On the evening of January 5, 2021, 17-year-old Marysville student Andre Hofland was lured outside his home for what he believed was a sale of disposable vape pens. Shortly after 9 p.m., his mother heard a gunshot and her son’s scream. A brief struggle occurred during the transaction; Andre was shot, stumbled across the street, and collapsed near the sidewalk outside his house. His father held him until help arrived and Andre was taken to Providence Regional Medical Center Everett, where he died on the operating table.

Before he died Andre identified his shooter as Dominic from school, a statement that provided a lead for investigators. Police identified two teenage suspects, 16-year-old Dominic Wilson and 17-year-old Morzae Roberts. Neighbour security footage captured the meeting and the fatal encounter, showing two hooded individuals meeting Andre, an exchange, one person pointing an object, a struggle, and Andre falling while the others fled. Wilson and Roberts were arrested the next day; Roberts initially gave conflicting accounts but later cooperated after learning of the video.

Does anyone have information about Andre’s last movements or remember seeing the meeting that night?
