On Thursday, June 27, David Magee was shot and killed at New Orleans’ Parasite skatepark. The 22-year-old was well-known at Humidity, the skateshop where Magee was an enthusiastic and friendly local. New Orleans’ Lower Light Baptist Church held a service this morning, and, Humidity was there to see Magee in grand style: with a final push on the quarterpipe, Magee’s vessel performed its final trick. This is a truly touching tribute to a skater who was torn away from us too soon.

(Incidentally, Magee’s murderer was apprehended by the NOPD Violent Offender Warrant Squad. His name is Christopher Steele.)

Here’s Humidity’s caption for the above post: “Last Rock to Fakie. Love you David Magee.”
