Quinton M. Jacobs was 31 when he was shot and killed on July 30, 2020, in the 1000 block of East Market Street in York, Pennsylvania. Police were called at about 12:36 a.m.; Jacobs was found unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene. The York County Coroner’s Office ruled his death a homicide.

Known to family and friends as Q or Man, Jacobs was a father to a son and a daughter and had plans to work in real estate. His family remembers him for a contagious smile and a protective, charismatic presence. The York City Police Department opened a homicide investigation, offered a cash reward for information, and asked the public to submit tips to detectives, York County Crime Stoppers, or the department tip line. As of early 2025 the case remained unsolved and no arrests had been announced.

Did anyone in York at the time have information about that early-morning shooting or remember seeing Quinton in the days before July 30, 2020?
