Do you know who murdered Deandre?
Dandre Choice, a 15-year-old from Dayton, Ohio, was tragically killed on January 19, 2014. He was found in an alley on the 400 block of Westwood Avenue, having sustained multiple gunshot wounds. The incident took place around 2 p.m. on that day, and authorities have suggested that the killing was not a random act of violence. The Dayton Police Department has been leading the investigation, seeking to establish a timeline of events and looking into possible affiliations or associations that might have led to his death.

The night before the shooting, Dandre was seen at a party held at DJ's Party House on Hoover Avenue, and he was reportedly on his way to a friend's house afterward. The next morning, he posted a photo on Facebook showing himself with a large amount of cash, an action that caught the attention of investigators as they worked on the case. There was also a report of an abduction involving Dandre early on January 19, but details remain unclear, and no Amber Alert was issued due to insufficient information to meet the criteria for such a notice. Authorities have expressed that it is likely Dandre knew his attacker or attackers, adding a layer of complexity to the case as they work through the possible leads.

The community has expressed deep sorrow over the loss of Dandre. Neighbors described him as a good kid who was always helpful. The Dayton Police Department continues to appeal for any information that could aid in solving the case, hoping that increased public awareness may help identify those responsible for this tragic event.
