On October 1, 2023, 16-year-old Keshaun Lamar was fatally shot at an apartment in the 27500 block of Brush Avenue in Euclid, Ohio. He was taken to Cleveland Clinic Hillcrest Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The Euclid Police Department identified and arrested a juvenile suspect from Euclid the same day; that suspect’s identity and age were not disclosed.

Authorities later identified 20-year-old Jay Shan Vance as a second suspect. Vance was arrested by the U.S. Marshals Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force in East Cleveland and charged with aggravated murder, murder, aggravated robbery, robbery, felonious assault, grand theft, tampering with evidence, and having weapons under disability. At arraignment he pleaded not guilty and bond was set at $1 million; a probation hold from an earlier case kept him in custody pending trial.

Keshaun’s school community at Frederick Douglass High School Euclid Campus remembered him as respectful, positive, and well-mannered. Does anyone have information about Keshaun, his movements that day, or the events at the Brush Avenue apartment?
