Del. Teen Killed Outside Concord Mall, $5,000 Reward for Arrest – NBC10 Philadelphia

Police identified a teenager who was shot to death during a carnival outside the Concord Mall in Delaware earlier this month and announced a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in his murder.

The incident occurred on Saturday, May 11, 2024, at approximately 10:45 p.m. in front of the Concord Mall at 4737 Concord Pike in Wilmington. Investigators believe there was a fight at the LEAD Fest Carnival across the street from the mall in an adjacent parking lot. An unknown person then pulled out a gun and opened fire, shooting 16-year-old Zykier Flowers of Wilmington and a 17-year-old boy, investigators said.

Both Flowers and the 17-year-old were taken to the hospital. Flowers was later pronounced dead, while the 17-year-old boy was treated for his serious injuries and later released.

Carnival organizers ended the event the next day and posted a Facebook message expressing their condolences.
