Earl Gregory Carter Jr., 22, was shot while waiting for a ride with friends outside his mother’s home on W. 25th Street in Jacksonville on December 26, 2012. Witnesses say a young man from the neighborhood approached the group and an unknown vehicle soon pulled up; its occupants opened fire, apparently aiming at the newcomer. Earl was the only person struck and died of his injuries the following day.

Despite multiple witnesses, no one has been identified as responsible. The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office has continued to appeal for information, and First Coast Crime Stoppers has offered a reward for tips that could lead to an arrest. The family has been actively seeking answers and urges anyone who knows anything to contact the Sheriff’s Office or Crime Stoppers.
