On June 22, 2024, 24-year-old Isaiah Matthew Fields was fatally shot in Clearwater, Florida. The shooting began after an argument between Fields and 27-year-old Treco De’Andre Miller at Miller’s apartment complex at 200 South Starcrest Drive. Witnesses say an initial fight started inside Fields’ residence around 3:15 a.m., moved to a second-story landing in front of Miller’s door, and both men fell down the stairs to the ground floor.
During a second confrontation, Miller shot Fields in the chest. Officers and fire rescue found Fields at the scene, rendered first aid, and transported him to the hospital, where he later died. Miller was arrested and charged with second-degree murder; bond was set at $250,000 and he was scheduled to appear in court on June 26, 2024.
Isaiah, known as Zay, is survived by his son Riley Fields, parents Carlos Fields, Sr. and Mandy L. Long, siblings William Long, Devon Long, Carlos Fields, Makala Fields, and Aiyana Fields, plus extended family and friends. Does anyone have information about the events at Starcrest Drive that morning?
