Jamorie Cannon was 17 when he was fatally shot in the face on Sunday, February 5, 2023, as he was entering his home in St. Louis. Emergency responders were called, but he died from his injuries. Friends and family described him as goofy, laid-back, and respectful, and they held a vigil a little more than a week after the shooting, releasing balloons to honor him.

At the time of the vigil the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department had not publicly identified any suspects or announced arrests, and the investigation was ongoing. If anyone has information about Jamorie’s death or saw anything the evening of February 5, please come forward to help his family and the community find answers.
