Jonathan Jonny Adamow, 29, was killed in the early morning hours of December 31, 2024, in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood. The fatal shooting occurred shortly before 3 a.m. near Broadway and East Pike Street. Surveillance footage shows Adamow walking past a person who had been lingering behind a pole; that person stepped out and fired multiple rounds, striking Adamow. A second pedestrian narrowly escaped injury and the shooter fled into an alley; a white car was seen speeding away. Authorities have said Adamow was not the intended target.

Adamow, born July 6, 1995, in Manhattan, was active in the Renaissance Faire community and worked in conservation and habitat restoration. Family and friends remember him for his love of art, nature, and humanitarian work. His funeral was held January 11, 2025, in Stony Point, New York, where attendees were asked to wear vibrant colors.

A charging development after the shooting was announced on April 7, 2025. Does anyone who was in Capitol Hill that night or who remembers seeing a white car near Pike and Broadway have information to share?
