Kyron Ryon Deshawn Baker was 19 when he was found fatally shot in an alley behind East Miner Street near Coquillard Park in South Bend, Indiana, on September 26, 2016. The shooting occurred about 2:42 p.m., when children were beginning to leave school; witnesses reported seeing a man flee the scene and South Bend Police responded to the Cedar and Arthur streets area. The St. Joseph County Metro Homicide Unit led the investigation, and an autopsy ruled the death a homicide from a gunshot wound.

The alley and nearby stretch of neighborhood—close to two daycare centers—were treated as an active crime scene as investigators canvassed and interviewed residents. No arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified; the case remains an active investigation. Kyron’s obituary described him as loving, kind-hearted, hardworking, and someone who respected his elders; he left behind parents, multiple siblings, and a girlfriend who was expecting their first child.

Does anyone who lived in that neighborhood or was in the area on September 26, 2016 have information that could help investigators?
