Stephen Shahly, a 43-year-old father of four and fiancé, was found dead from gunshot wounds inside a garage on Rustic Green Court in the Mandarin neighborhood of Jacksonville on the evening of Monday, November 3, 2025. The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office responded to reports of gunfire around 5:30 p.m. and confirmed the death was the result of gun violence.

Less than 24 hours later authorities executed a search warrant at a nearby home with SWAT assistance and arrested 44-year-old Donald Rentfrow Jr., who was booked into the Duval County jail and charged with second-degree murder. Officials have not released a motive or described the relationship, if any, between Shahly and Rentfrow. Family, friends and local community groups expressed shock and grief at Shahly’s death.

What did neighbors or anyone in the Mandarin area see or hear around 5:30 p.m. on November 3 that could help the investigation?
