Derrick Ball, 46, was fatally shot on October 24, 2016, near 24th Street and Auer Avenue in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Milwaukee police and emergency medical personnel responded, but Ball died at the scene after an altercation with a male suspect.

Investigators identified 19-year-old Devontae Turner of Chicago as the primary suspect; Turner was alleged to have shot Ball and then fled the scene. The killing was one of several daylight shootings in Milwaukee that day, and the Milwaukee Homicide Review Commission highlighted Ball among the victims in its 2016 annual report.

The investigation into Ball’s death was ongoing and authorities asked anyone with information about Turner’s whereabouts to come forward. If anyone knew Derrick Ball, the events that day, or has information relevant to the investigation, please share what is known with Milwaukee police.
