On the evening of September 4, 2022, 19-year-old Da'Kylen White, who was an expecting father, was shot and killed while seated in his vehicle in the 4200 block of North High School Road near West 46th Street in Indianapolis. Officers from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department arrived and White was pronounced dead at the scene around 6 p.m.

Security camera footage from a nearby convenience store and cooperation from the community identified 22-year-old Julius Beverly getting out of the passenger side of White’s car, then re-entering and firing multiple shots that struck White in the head. The video also showed Beverly taking something from near White’s waist before fleeing with another person who had been in the back passenger seat; responding officers reported White’s firearm holster was empty. People who knew both men said they considered each other family.
