Hakeem Kwantez Logan

Hakeem Kwantez Logan lived in Roanoke, Virginia, and was 29 years old when he died on September 4, 2021. Public records and local reporting identify him by name and confirm that he was found fatally wounded in the 300 block of Harrison Avenue NW late that evening and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Though an official family-published obituary or funeral-home notice matching his name and the exact date of death was not located in the public record, multiple reputable local news outlets and court reporting confirm Hakeem Logan’s identity and the date he died. Those sources indicate that his death was felt by family, friends, and neighbors and that investigators worked to learn more in the months and years that followed.

Beyond the basic facts reported in news coverage, there is limited publicly available personal detail about Hakeem’s life in the sources consulted. That absence in the public record does not diminish the fact that he was a person with relationships and a history in his community. The records show he was a Black man in his late twenties who lived in Roanoke; he was part of the neighborhoods and ordinary daily life of the city. The later criminal proceedings connected to the September 4, 2021 shooting demonstrate the long shadow such a loss casts on loved ones and on a community working toward answers.

This page is intended as a simple remembrance of Hakeem Kwantez Logan: a life that mattered to those who knew him. Even when public details are limited, the acknowledgement of his name, age, and the date he died keeps his presence in memory. For family and friends seeking to add memories, photographs, or a family-authored notice, a memorial page can become a place to honor what they recall most about him — the relationships, moments, and everyday humanity that defined his life rather than the manner of his death.
