Benamar Benny Vicente was 20 and living in West Palm Beach when he was shot while walking home from work on January 8, 2015. He was shot on Georgia Avenue near Hollywood Place at about 9:05 p.m., found by neighbors lying in the street with a single gunshot wound, and died at the hospital the following day. His death was the first homicide recorded in Palm Beach County in 2015.

The West Palm Beach Police Department and Crime Stoppers of Palm Beach County are seeking tips in an unsolved case that police describe as a random act of violence. A reward of up to $3,000 has been offered, but investigators say a lack of evidence and witnesses willing to come forward has hampered the inquiry. Vicente’s mother Silvia Ortiz and his siblings have kept a memorial at home and continue to appeal for information.

Does anyone have information about Benamar Vicente’s movements that evening or recall seeing anything on Georgia Avenue near Hollywood Place around 9:00 p.m. on January 8, 2015?
