Abel Elijah Kane was 18 when he was fatally shot during an attempted robbery at the Oakwood Terrace Apartment Complex in Pensacola on June 27, 2018. Remembered by family for a loving, compassionate nature and a love of soccer, the beach and the outdoors, his death had a lasting effect on those who knew him.

Authorities say Vincent Winchester, 16 at the time, was identified as the shooter. Winchester and 17-year-old Kelijah Watson attempted to rob Abel; Winchester was later convicted of second-degree murder and Watson pleaded guilty and received a sentence for his part in the robbery. A third suspect, Demetrius Caesar, was arrested after being at large for nearly a month and extradited to Escambia County.

Abel’s father, Brad Kane, described the family’s ongoing pain; the day of Abel’s death has replaced other family observances as a time for visiting his gravesite. Did anyone in Pensacola know Abel or see activity around Oakwood Terrace on June 27, 2018?
