Zenas Powell was 14 when he was killed on May 21, 2016, on the 1100 block of Pine Lane in Chester, Pennsylvania. He was outside a corner store and was struck by gunfire as an innocent bystander; two other people were also hit, including his cousin Quamar Powell and 32-year-old Janene Shipley. Zenas had been due to graduate eighth grade from Chester Community Charter School, and classmates honored him posthumously at the graduation ceremony.

No arrests have been announced and the investigation remains open. The City of Chester and the managing company of the charter school have offered a combined $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. The shooting was recorded as Chester’s 11th homicide of that year.

If anyone has information about what happened on Pine Lane that day, please come forward to assist the investigation.
