A 17-year-old boy is shot and killed in Malabar.

The boy is Javaughn Alvarez.

He was from Mahogany Drive.

Last Saturday at around 4:30pm Javaughn was at his home when he was called outside.

He had a conversation with some people in a Nissan Tiida and was returning to the house when he was shot.
