Jerome Boyer, 35, was fatally shot on August 4, 2007, during an altercation in a Philadelphia neighborhood already experiencing a surge in violence. The shooting occurred at the corner of Colgate and Alcott streets, where a makeshift memorial with photos, flowers, and candles was reported about a year later.

The Philadelphia Police Department investigated the case, but the inquiry has been hampered by scarce information and a community unwillingness to come forward. Jerome’s mother, Joanne Hardy, has been left without answers about who was responsible for her son’s death. No arrests or publicly identified suspects have been announced, and the investigation remains open.

Did anyone see or hear anything around Colgate and Alcott streets on August 4, 2007, that could help bring Jerome Boyer’s family some answers?
