Jarvis Lee Shields Jr., 21, was shot and killed on June 13, 2015, after an argument at a house party on Rowland Street in Syracuse, New York. Known to family and friends as King Ja Ja, he had been a varsity football player at Cypress Ranch High School in Houston and Corcoran High School in Syracuse. Shields was taken to the hospital but died of his injuries.

Syracuse police identified 18-year-old Tyquan Nelson as the suspect and a warrant charging him with second-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon was issued in July 2015. Nelson was located and taken into custody by the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force in October 2015. In May 2016 Nelson pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of first-degree manslaughter and received a 23-year state prison sentence, followed by five years of post-release supervision.

If anyone attended that Rowland Street party or saw what happened that night, can you share information with investigators?
