Nineteen-year-old Shavarion Jaleel Ross was shot in Jackson, Mississippi, on the evening of April 23, 2024. Officers responding to the 300 block of North Flag Chapel Road found Ross suffering from at least one gunshot wound; he was taken to a local hospital and later pronounced dead.

Initial investigative steps produced few immediate answers, and the Jackson Police Department asked anyone with information to come forward. Family and friends held funeral services at Fearns Chapel Freewill Baptist Church in Flora, Mississippi, to mourn Ross’s death.

Six months into the investigation, detectives continued working to establish the circumstances and motive behind the killing. Does anyone have information about that night on North Flag Chapel Road or about Shavarion Ross’s activities in Jackson in April 2024?
