Billy Gipson, 16, a Black male from Fort Worth, was shot during a confrontation on the evening of June 15, 2025, on Asheville Lane on the city’s south side. Police say two people were arguing in front of a home in the 8400 block when one person produced a rifle and a struggle over that weapon began; a third person then opened fire with a handgun, striking both Gipson and 25-year-old Jaylan Lemore Sharp.

Gipson was taken from the scene and later died at the hospital; Sharp was pronounced dead at the scene. Officers stopped a vehicle shortly after the shooting, detained occupants for questioning, and within about two days arrested 17-year-old Marquavius Hunt on a charge of capital murder of multiple persons; booking records show he was taken into custody in Tarrant County on June 17, 2025.

The Asheville Lane double homicide was one of several unrelated shootings that Sunday in Fort Worth. Authorities urged conflict-resolution over retaliation while the investigation proceeded.
