On September 1, 2014, 15-year-old Camron Powell, a Black / African American male, was shot and killed in Milwaukee’s Walker’s Point neighborhood. The shooting followed a series of overnight robberies in which Powell, his cousin Montrell Powell and four other teenagers participated. The group, traveling in two cars, had been involved in about a dozen robberies before targeting four people in the parking lot of Steny’s Tavern and Grill on West National Avenue around 5:30 a.m.

An exchange of gunfire occurred between one of the teens and one of the intended robbery victims. After the teens fled in one car and abandoned the other, Camron returned to the parked vehicle a few minutes later to retrieve a black bag of stolen phones and clothing. The man who had earlier exchanged gunfire saw Camron leaning into the car, feared he was reaching for a weapon, and fired a single shot that killed him; investigators later determined Camron was unarmed and ruled the shooting self-defense, so no charges were filed against the shooter.

Four of the teens involved were charged as adults; Montrell Powell received a 10-year sentence and a 14-year-old was sentenced to three years.

Are there details about Camron’s activities that morning, or witnesses who haven’t yet spoken, that could shed more light on what happened?
