Ronald Price Jr. had just gotten home from work and was going to the kitchen to grab a bite to eat. His 16-year-old stepson, Breon Austin, was headed out, pausing a moment to pick up his dropped cellphone.

Just then, Price said, a person wearing a mask burst through the partially opened back door and with few or no words began shooting. Price watched as Breon was struck and died in the hallway on Friday afternoon.
[...]
Police, who confirmed Price’s account, are searching for the shooter and a vehicle of interest, described as a gray, four-door sedan with a sun roof and stickers on the driver’s side.

I haven't seen any updates in Breon's murder; only opinion pieces referencing Breon.

“Everyday I wake up,” [one student] wrote, “I have to worry about who is going to jail, or who got shot and killed.”
“I’ve seen and heard people being hurt,” wrote one student. “I feel like it’s a tradition [that] kids don’t get to see 18 or older,” wrote another. “Violence,” wrote another, “has made me harsher in general and more suspicious of people.”
