On the evening of September 6, 2010, 18-year-old Jeremy Price, a Black male, was shot once on Astoria Street in Mattapan, Boston. Police arrived after reports of shots fired around 8:39 p.m.; Price was transported to Boston Medical Center and pronounced dead. The city labeled his death its 46th homicide of the year.

Investigators searched for a black Suzuki reported in the area after the shooting, but no arrests were announced in the immediate aftermath and the case remained an active investigation. Price had a troubled recent history: at 15 he was charged in the 2007 death of 41-year-old Michael Hansbury, a manslaughter case dismissed in July 2010 when he was found mentally incompetent to stand trial. A judge had tried to place him in support programs, but he reportedly left those facilities.

His funeral took place September 13, 2010, at Greater Love Tabernacle Church in Dorchester, and he was buried at Mount Hope Cemetery. If anyone has information about the shooting or the black Suzuki seen afterward, please come forward.
