Isaiah Zay Solomon was 15 when he was killed on August 27, 2016. He was one of two people fatally wounded when gunfire broke out during a vigil for another slain teenager at Northwest 19th Avenue and Northwest 83rd Terrace in Miami-Dade County. The vigil had been held for 19-year-old Devonair Deb Blake, who had been shot days earlier.

The shooting was a drive-by. Isaiah was struck in the crossfire and died; 22-year-old Tafari Fari West was also killed and several others were wounded, including 20-year-old Verneisha Gillum and three men. Isaiah’s mother, Sirena Harrell, called him her first heartbeat and has publicly mourned his loss while continuing to push for answers. The Miami-Dade Police Department offered a reward of $13,000 for information leading to an arrest, but no one has been apprehended and the case remains open.

If anyone attended that vigil or has information about the drive-by shooting, please share what you know with investigators.
