On the early morning of September 4, 2017, 22-year-old Dearyes Cory-Jevonta Scott was killed in a shooting on Dartmouth Avenue on Flint’s west side. The attack, about 3 a.m. on Labor Day, also killed 23-year-old Donquel Lamar Jackson and wounded a third person who survived.

Dearyes was described as a beloved son, brother, and friend who brought joy to those around him. The Flint Police Department and the Michigan State Police investigated the triple shooting, but public information about specific suspects or arrests has been scarce.

The killings deepened the community’s grief and contributed to Flint’s ongoing struggles with gun violence. If anyone knew Dearyes, Donquel, or has information about the incident, please contact the investigators. Would anyone who knew them or who has details about that night please come forward?
