On Sunday, May 2, 2004 at approximately 1:45 a.m. a fight broke out at the Now & Us karaoke bar at 3925 99th Street.
The fight spilled out into the parking lot. Several people were stabbed, including Donald who was found dead at the scene with a stab wound to the chest.
Don was not involved in drug or gang activity and the fight was said to have included up to 50 people. His murder appears to be a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, as it is not believed he was specifically targeted.
