Stephen Ray Caudill Jr. was 18 and a recent graduate of Dobyns-Bennett High School when he was killed by gunfire in Kingsport, Tennessee, on February 20, 2017. Described as having a happy demeanor and being willing to help others, he left behind close family ties and a girlfriend.

The shooting prompted a police search that led Dobyns-Bennett to go into a shelter in place while investigators worked at the scene. Authorities identified a suspect soon after and arrested Anthony Moosman; bond was later set at $250,000. Court documents have since provided additional details about the circumstances of the fatal shooting.

If anyone knew Stephen, his activities that winter, or has information about what happened that night, please come forward to assist the investigation.
