When officers arrived, they found the teen, later identified as Makai Green, unconscious and not breathing in an alley. Makai was taken to an area hospital where he died from his injuries.

The suspect is described as being 5-foot-10, a very thin build, wearing blue jeans, a dark-colored jacket, a winter mask and tennis shoes.
Days later, MPD released photos of the person they believe pulled the trigger. They have also released photos of the car they believe the suspect drove away in.
