Fifteen-year-old Jakyri Fleurimar of Hollywood, Florida, died on August 12, 2015, after being shot in the chest inside a Miami residence on the 5300 block of Northwest 27th Place. Jakyri was with three other youths, aged between 12 and 18, when a 14-year-old boy from Miami removed a handgun from a dresser drawer and, while attempting to unload it, the weapon discharged. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue pronounced Jakyri dead at the scene.

The 14-year-old was arrested and charged with manslaughter with a deadly weapon; his identity was not released because of his age. He was released to home detention with a monitor after a court hearing. The Miami-Dade Police Department Homicide Bureau investigated; the two other males and one female who were in the home were interviewed. The shooting was classified as accidental, though some friends and family questioned the circumstances.

Jakyri was entering 11th grade at Doral Academy Preparatory and played varsity football as a running back and wide receiver. Does anyone have information about that night or knew Jakyri and can add details that might clarify what happened?
