Jamorris Gitt Milton, a 33-year-old Black man, was shot and killed on January 23, 2016, in the 500 block of Southwest Fifth Street in Belle Glade, Florida. He and Horace Gordon had been feuding for about a week before the fatal confrontation. On the night of the killing the two fought in a convenience store parking lot on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard; witnesses said Gordon fired a 9mm handgun multiple times, striking Milton and continuing to fire after Milton fell to the ground.

The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office identified and arrested Gordon on a murder charge days after the shooting. Milton’s death was recorded as one of 87 homicides in Palm Beach County in 2016. Does anyone have information about Milton’s life in Belle Glade or recall the events that night?
