Duane White was a 15-year-old Black/African American boy who was shot and killed on the evening of January 4, 2016, in Norfolk, Virginia. Police were called to a residence on Bankhead Avenue where they found him with a gunshot wound; he was taken to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital and pronounced dead.

Detectives arrested 18-year-old Tyler K. Ricks the next day and charged him with second-degree murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. Ricks, who lived on the same block as the shooting, was being held in Norfolk City Jail without bond. Officials did not release details about the relationship between White and Ricks or the circumstances that led to the shooting while the investigation was ongoing.

Does anyone have information about Duane White, his life in the neighborhood, or what happened on Bankhead Avenue that night?
