A teen walking home is murdered Devon Brown, a 19-year-old Black male from Omaha, was killed on April 26, 2010. His obituary in the Omaha World-Herald lists his age as 19 and places him in Omaha at the time of his death.
That Monday night, around 9:58 p.m., Brown was walking near 6341 North 24th Street when a vehicle pulled up and someone inside opened fire. Responding officers found him down with multiple gunshot wounds.
The shooting location, timeline, and description of shots fired from a passing vehicle have been preserved in the Omaha Police Department s cold-case summary of the murder.
Investigators have treated the case as an unsolved homicide. Public appeals have continued in the years since, including a Crime Stoppers reward of up to $25,000 for anonymous tips that lead to an arrest and charges. Local coverage reiterated Brown s case during a citywide cold-case push, underscoring that detectives still seek the gunman and any witnesses who can help close the case. As of the latest public notices, no arrests have been announced and the suspect or suspects have not been identified.
