On the evening of March 15, 2015, at about 9:00 p.m., gunfire rang out in the 3200 block of North Pontiac Street in Denver. Officers responding to the scene found 27-year-old Black male Jeffrey Starks with gunshot wounds. He was taken to a hospital but died that same evening.

Investigators from the Denver Police Department initially said they believed the killing was related to gang violence, and the shooting was one of several violent incidents in the city that weekend. Despite that early assessment, the inquiry has since gone cold. No arrests or suspects have been publicly identified in connection with Starks’s death.

Anyone with information about what happened on North Pontiac Street on March 15, 2015, is asked to contact Denver police to help bring answers for Jeffrey Starks’s family.
