Stefon Rico Cook was 20 and a student at Excel Academy in Baltimore when he was fatally shot on the night of November 25, 2017. Enrolled for about a month, he had been pursuing a high school diploma after struggles in traditional settings and was described as engaging, with an infectious smile. His death was the seventh student loss to violence at the academy that academic year.

The location, the circumstances that led to the shooting, and whether any suspects were identified or arrested have not been detailed publicly. His family and school community were left without clear answers after his life was cut short.

If anyone knew Stefon, saw him that night, or has information about what happened on November 25, 2017, please come forward.
