Jeremiah Taylor Stewart was 16 when he was shot dead on the evening of June 25, 2018, on the 3600 block of Wabash Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri. He and his 15-year-old friend, Demonte Walker, were both found with fatal gunshot wounds; emergency responders were unable to save either boy. Authorities reported the shooter or shooters remained at large and released no suspect information in the initial reports.

Jeremiah, born November 11, 2001, lived in Kansas City and was due to graduate high school that summer. He played youth football for SCM Ridahs and was remembered by a former coach as a young man who needed guidance and whose laughter brightened practices. Family and community members described both teenagers as just kids whose potential was cut short.

Police asked the public for any information that could lead to an arrest. Does anyone have information about that night on Wabash Avenue or knew Jeremiah and Demonte?
