Darntrell Marque Belle, a 22-year-old Black man remembered for a playful and loving nature, was found with gunshot wounds on July 21, 2012, in the 700 block of 36th Street in Newport News, Virginia. He died of those injuries the next day, July 22, 2012, leaving family and friends mourning the sudden loss of someone who brought smiles to those around him. Born March 21, 1990, he had attended schools in Newport News and Hampton.

Investigators quickly identified a suspect in the killing: 19-year-old Tyrek LaQuann Spanky Allen, also from Newport News. Allen was arrested and charged with murder; at the time, authorities in Newport News and Hampton were seeking him in connection with other shootings that day and a triple shooting months earlier. The case was one of several homicides during a violent year for the city.

Did anyone who knew Darntrell or was in that neighborhood on July 21, 2012, see anything that could help the record of what happened?
