Robert Lee Fox was 16 when he was shot and killed in the early hours of a February 2014 Tuesday in Richmond, Virginia. He had been with a group of other teenagers in a residential area when a car alarm sounded; the group was allegedly breaking into vehicles on the street where Dominique T. Clark lived. Clark, who held a concealed handgun permit, went outside after being awakened and confronted the teenagers. A single gunshot struck Fox; his body was later found in an alley in Mechanicsville.

Dominique Tylvann Clark was arrested and charged in connection with Fox’s death. Prosecutors argued that using lethal force was an excessive response; the court found Clark guilty of voluntary manslaughter. The case prompted public discussion about concealed carry, the use of force, and how confrontations between armed homeowners and groups of youths can escalate.

If anyone knew Robert, was with him that night, or has information about what happened in that alley, please share what you remember.
