Jacob Adam Barrett was a 16-year-old sophomore at Woodward High School in Toledo, Ohio, remembered by family and friends for his optimism, sense of humor, and protective nature toward his siblings. A White male and an avid Green Bay Packers fan, Jacob loved sports and dreamed of playing college football; those who knew him recall a goofy laugh and a smile that could light up a room.

In the early morning of February 11, 2024, at about 1:37 a.m., Toledo police were sent to the 200 block of Langdon Street after reports of a person shot. Officers found Jacob with at least one gunshot wound; he was taken to a local hospital and later died. The coroner determined he died from a gunshot wound to the chest and ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators identified 29-year-old Dominic Garcia as a suspect; he was arrested on February 12 and charged with having weapons under disability, and a Lucas County grand jury returned a murder indictment on March 6. Garcia entered a plea of not guilty on March 13. Does anyone who knew Jacob or who was in the Langdon Street area that night have information that could help the case?
