On March 17, 2023, 22-year-old Kentae Deshawn Duncan was found deceased from a gunshot wound in Northeast Dallas. His body was discovered in a grassy area between the parking lot and a fence at the Metro-Midtown Apartments located at 5811 Pineland Street. The incident occurred around 6:30 a.m., when Dallas police officers responded to the scene.
Surveillance footage obtained by the Dallas Police Department shows Duncan exiting the apartment complex's parking lot with another individual
shortly before the shooting. The person accompanying Duncan is described as a Black male, possibly between 18 and 20 years old.
