Balir Starkey, 34, of Chester, Pennsylvania, was shot and killed on October 10, 2020. The shooting happened about 10:40 p.m. on Crosby Street; Starkey was found lying on the sidewalk with multiple gunshot wounds and was taken to Crozer-Chester Medical Center, where he died.

Investigators identified two suspects. Lamar Eric Linehan, 25, of Chester, was described in court as the person who fired multiple shots at Starkey; surveillance footage from a grainy night-vision camera captured the shooting and a witness identified Linehan as the shooter. Rashee Lamar Thomas, 38, was arrested later as Linehan’s co-defendant. Reports say both men maintained their innocence.

Starkey’s death was presented in connection with gun violence linked to drug-related conflicts in Chester. Does anyone have information about Starkey, his movements that night, or Crosby Street at that time?
