Audrey Maria Kellogg was a 14-year-old eighth grader from Erie, Pennsylvania, who died of a gunshot wound to the head on October 29, 2022. The shooting occurred at a Chestnut Street apartment where Audrey was attending a gathering with friends. She was remembered as intelligent, funny, and athletic, with a love of ice hockey, skateboarding, cooking, and animals.

Police say Audrey’s 16-year-old boyfriend, Riley R. Shearer, was handling a shotgun when it discharged and fatally injured her. Shearer admitted to firing the gun and was charged as an adult with involuntary manslaughter, two felony counts of aggravated assault, plus several misdemeanor counts including recklessly endangering another person and possession of a firearm by a minor. He waived his preliminary hearing and was released on bond under conditions that include living with his mother and electronic monitoring. Authorities say the investigation is ongoing and additional charges could be filed.

If anyone knew Audrey, was at the gathering that night, or has information about the shooting, please share what you know.
