Investigators looking into the death of 18-year-old Xavier Olesko say they believe someone knows what happened.
Olesko was shot and killed in his driveway Monday evening; so far police say they have few leads and have released few details in the case.
Officials said Olesko was temporarily living at the home on the 8100 block of Tumbleweed Trial and was in his back yard with friends when he went out front to meet with someone.
His friends told police they ran to the front yard after hearing a gunshot. By the time they got there, Olesko was on the ground and unresponsive -- and no one else was around and no vehicle was seen leaving the area.
Investigators with the White Settlement Police Department poured over the scene and, while the investigation is still in the preliminary stages and there's no known motive, detectives said Friday they believe someone knows what led to the shooting.
"The White Settlement Police Department is asking for the public's help in identifying the person or persons responsible for this incident," police said in a statement Friday. "Anyone with information is asked to contact the White Settlement Police Department's Criminal Investigation Unit at 817-246-7070. Persons wishing to remain anonymous may call the Crime Stoppers Tip Line, 817-469-TIPS. Persons providing information leading to the arrest and conviction of any suspect may be eligible for a cash reward from the Tarrant County Crime Stoppers."
The reward amount has not yet been specified or confirmed by Crime Stoppers.
