A planned meeting arranged over social media ended in gunfire for 19-year-old Vonnae R. Whitaker. On January 13, 2015, Whitaker and two companions went to the 5600 block of N. 91st St. in Milwaukee to buy marijuana after responding to a Facebook post. The vehicle they approached was driven by 17-year-old Jarvell Little, with 17-year-old Dante K. Bell as a passenger. Little produced a gun and opened fire, fatally wounding Whitaker and injuring a 15-year-old who was with him. Whitaker was taken to a hospital and died of his injuries.

Milwaukee police arrested Little and Bell the next day, January 14, 2015. Prosecutors later charged Little with first-degree reckless homicide, first-degree reckless injury and possession of a short-barreled rifle; Bell was charged with possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance for his part in arranging the drug transaction. Is there anyone who knew Vonnae or the others who can share what led them to respond to that Facebook post?
