Jonah Golden, 19, was shot and killed at a house party in the Ortega Farms neighborhood of Jacksonville on April 23, 2016. The gathering began as a small get-together but grew as more people arrived; neighbors had complained earlier in the evening. Violence erupted and gunfire broke out about 2:30 a.m. Jonah was struck in the front yard and died; another person was wounded and survived. The shooter or shooters fled before police arrived.

Earlier that day Jonah posted a foreboding message on Facebook, though it is not known whether he anticipated what followed. Investigators named a person of interest, Kyon Wilkes, and the family offered a reward as they and law enforcement pursued leads. The killing was listed as Jacksonville’s 35th murder of 2016. Jonah is remembered by family for his kindness, sense of humor, and selflessness.

If anyone was at the Ortega Farms party or has information that could help the family and investigators, please come forward.
