On the evening of June 15, 2025, 25-year-old Jaylan Lemore Sharp, a Black man from Fort Worth, was shot and killed during a street confrontation on the 8400 block of Asheville Lane in south Fort Worth. Police say an argument among young men escalated into a physical struggle; during that fight one of the victims produced a rifle and at least one shot was fired while two men grappled for the weapon.

A third person at the scene then drew a handgun and fired multiple times, striking Jaylan Lemore Sharp and 16-year-old Billy Gipson. Jaylan Sharp died at the scene; Gipson was taken by private vehicle toward an ambulance and later died at a hospital. Detectives focused on the third person who intervened with the handgun, and on June 16 officers arrested 17-year-old Marquavius Hunt on a charge of capital murder of multiple persons, citing an arrest-warrant affidavit that says the suspect left the scene with others before being stopped and booked.

The double killing was among several unrelated violent incidents across the city that day and prompted increased patrols in the areas involved. Memorial pages and community posts have since marked the date and location for Jaylan Sharp. If anyone witnessed the confrontation on Asheville Lane or has information about what led up to the shooting, please come forward.
