Paree Starks

Paree Starks, 22, was dropped off in critical condition Thursday night after being shot twice in the head. He died Sunday. Someone dropped off Starks, of the 8400 block of Minnesota, at a hospital before 11 p.m. Thursday. Police aren't sure where the attack happened. Starks had been involved in the Prison Performing Arts program during stints as a detainee in city facilities. The PPA remembered him as "a gifted artist with a passion for poetry" and said that, after going home in 2021, he had been exploring the idea of publishing his poetry.
