Xavier Thompson was 22 when he was found dead in Mandan, North Dakota, on October 2, 2010. Authorities ruled his death a homicide and later said the cause was gun violence. Friends and family remembered him as quiet and peaceful, which they said made the violent death especially hard to accept.

The Mandan Police Department opened an investigation, but few details have been released publicly. No motive, no specific circumstances of the shooting, and no persons of interest have been disclosed. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

If anyone in Mandan at that time remembers Xavier or has information about the night of October 2, 2010, please share what you know with investigators.
