Jamere Hassan Black was 22 when he was killed by gunfire on Halloween afternoon, October 31, 2024. The shooting occurred about 12:35 p.m. in the 1300 block of East 28th Street in Wilmington, Delaware. Officers, medical crews, and investigators responded to a scene cordoned with police tape; four people were found with gunshot wounds. Jamere was taken to a nearby hospital and did not survive. Three other men were wounded — a 34-year-old in critical condition and two younger men, ages 21 and 20, in stable condition.

Police described the case as an active homicide investigation but released few public details about what led to the shooting, whether the victims were targeted, or whether more than one shooter was involved. No arrests or named suspects were reported in the immediate aftermath. Investigators asked anyone with information to contact Detective Joseph Wicks at 302-576-3654.

Outside official accounts, memorial pages and obituary notices remembered Jamere as Shottie or Shakur, remembered for being loving, loyal, and closely connected to family and friends. Can anyone who was in the neighborhood that afternoon or who knew Jamere help investigators by sharing what they saw or know?
