TeSean Blue was 18 when he was shot dead while riding a bicycle near N. Brooks and E. Annie streets in Tampa on September 3, 2018. He was struck multiple times, rushed to a nearby hospital, and died of his wounds. Family and friends remember him for his vibrant personality, love of sports, and close ties to his family.

Police arrested 18-year-old Misael Mora and charged him with second-degree murder. Investigators said Mora and TeSean knew each other; witnesses reported Mora had been with TeSean shortly before the shooting and had told others he intended to harm him. Witnesses allege Mora produced a .38-caliber pistol and fired multiple shots, striking TeSean in the back as he rode away.

TeSean’s mother, Tara Jones, later encountered Mora at a local meat market without knowing his identity and spoke to him before detectives told her he was charged in her son’s death. Does anyone who knew TeSean or saw events that night have information that could help clarify what happened?
