Shawn Steven Jarvis, 20, was fatally shot in Hanover, Pennsylvania, on the evening of June 27, 2014, after a physical altercation in the town’s Center Square. The fight involved Jarvis and 24-year-old Colin Hafer of Harrisburg; during the struggle Hafer produced a semi-automatic handgun and shot Jarvis. Bystanders alerted a nearby police officer and Hafer was taken into custody at the scene.

Jarvis was transported to York Hospital but was pronounced dead by the coroner’s office at 9:04 p.m. that night. An autopsy was scheduled to determine the official cause of death. Hafer was charged with criminal homicide and later admitted to shooting Jarvis; in November 2014 he pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and faced a 5 to 10 year state prison sentence.
