Da’Jon Anthony Hayes-Burr, a 15-year-old from Louisville, Kentucky, was shot and killed by another teenager in a recent incident. Police confirmed the fatality, which has prompted mourning across the city.
The victim had previously gained public recognition for his actions in April, when he intervened to stop a 45-year-old man from sexually harassing a 12-year-old girl. During that earlier encounter, Hayes-Burr was stabbed while defending the girl, an act for which he received a municipal commendation and was widely hailed as a hero.
