Two-year-old Jamir Whitaker was killed on January 12, 2008, in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, when shots were fired into his home at 2805 Pelham Road around 8:30 PM. Jamir was struck by a stray bullet and later died at the hospital; his father was shot twice and survived. Authorities believed robbery was the motive after finding 17 pounds of marijuana, about $3,500 in cash, and other drug paraphernalia in the house.

Witnesses said a person ran to a dark green or blue late-model Ford Taurus with tinted windows and left the scene shortly after the shooting. Police have been seeking leads and offered a reward of up to $15,000 for information that could lead to an arrest. Does anyone have information that could help bring justice for Jamir and his family?
