On the morning of August 30, 2020, 19-year-old Michael Kenneth Mowry III was fatally shot in his bedroom at his apartment on 64 Monroe Drive in Rochester, New Hampshire. A 911 call came in at about 3:15 a.m.; first responders found Mowry deceased from a gunshot wound to the neck. Investigators describe the incident as a home invasion robbery carried out by four masked men who fled in a vehicle that authorities have since identified.

The New Hampshire Department of Justice has ruled the death a homicide and is actively investigating. Officials say the suspects are believed to have connections to Haverhill, Massachusetts, and the greater Merrimack Valley. The other young people living in the apartment have cooperated and are not considered suspects. No arrests have been announced; a reward of up to $1,000 is being offered for tips that lead to an arrest. Mowry’s family remembers him as a generous and loving kid who had just moved into his first apartment and hoped to play baseball for Great Bay Community College.

If anyone has information about the four assailants, the getaway vehicle, or movements around Monroe Drive that morning, please share what is known with investigators.
