In the quiet city of Dothan, Alabama, a life was tragically cut short on the evening of September 27, 2021. Dantrell Kelly Lindor, a 23-year-old male from the nearby town of Ozark, found himself at an apartment complex in the 400 block of West Inez Road. It was there that violence erupted, and Lindor was struck by multiple gunshots. First responders rushed to the scene, and life-saving measures were quickly administered.
He was then transported to a local hospital, but his injuries proved to be too severe, and he was pronounced dead.
The Dothan Police Department's Criminal Investigation Division immediately launched a homicide investigation into the shooting death of Dantrell Kelly Lindor. In the initial stages of their inquiry, law enforcement officials appealed to the public for any information that could lead to the apprehension of those responsible.
Information from the National Gun Violence Memorial indicates that an arrest was made in connection with the death of Mr. Lindor. According to the memorial's page, which references news reports from WDHN-DothanFirst.com, a teenager was taken into custody and is facing two counts of capital murder for the shooting death of the Ozark man.
Dantrell Kelly Lindor was born in Miami, Florida, and had moved to Headland, Alabama, at a young age. He was a 2018 graduate of Dale County High School and was employed with TriDelta Systems in Abbeville. Remembered for his bright smile that could light up a room, his kind personality, and good manners, his death left a void in the lives of his family and friends. He is survived by his son, his girlfriend, his parents, and several siblings. Funeral services were held on October 6, 2021, with his burial taking place at the Gardens of Memory Cemetery.
