Dallas homicide detectives are asking the public to help them solve the August 10 murder of 19-year-old Nijel Savage Smith.
Police found the young man shot to death inside a unit at the Sontera Palms Apartments at 9505 Royal Lane, near Abrams, at about 11:30 a.m.
Crime Stoppers pays up to $5,000 to anyone with information leading to the arrest and indictment of his killer. If you know something, call Detective Barnes at 214.671.3480 or Crime Stoppers at 214.373.tips (8477).
The victim’s mother Chisa Savage set up a GoFundMe.com page to help fund funeral service. Donations can be made directly to the Golden Gate Funeral Home, 4155 S R. L. Thornton (75224), 214.941.7332.
“Nijel was my first born and to think someone would take my child away from this earth is devastating to me,” she writes on the page. “This was unexpected, and to think I would have to bury my child is heartbreaking, if there’s any way that anyone could help by donating anything that will be deeply appreciated in our time of need.”
