Fatal Dallas shooting death of Demaryae Dequan Hill-Young – Obituary
A tragic event unfolded over the weekend as another student from the Dallas Independent School District lost their life to gun violence. Seventeen-year-old Demaryae Dequan Hill-Young was shot and killed, just a week after another student from Justin F. Kimball High School was murdered in South Dallas.
The Dallas Police Department responded to a report of gunfire in the 2800 block of Burger Avenue around 2:35 a.m. Officers arriving at the scene found Hill-Young suffering from gunshot wounds. Despite efforts from Dallas Fire-Rescue paramedics to save him, Hill-Young was pronounced dead at the scene.
Later that day, officials from the Dallas Independent School District confirmed that Hill-Young was a student at Lincoln High School.
This tragic incident follows the recent death of another Dallas ISD student, David Washington, who was fatally shot at a Love’s Gas Station on S. Polk Street on Friday, September 6. In connection with Washington’s death, a 16-year-old has been arrested and charged with murder.
Additionally, on Monday, September 9, a ninth-grade student at South Oak Cliff High School was grazed by a stray bullet at South Oak Cliff Renaissance Park, located across the street from the school. That shooting prompted a heavy police presence and a delayed school dismissal as authorities worked to clear the area.
The investigation into the shooting of Hill-Young remains ongoing, and no information regarding a suspect has been released. Police are asking anyone with information to contact Detective Andrew Knoebel at 469-849-3755 or via email at [email protected].
