In the early hours of May 4, 2024, gunfire erupted at a residence in the 500 block of Lyell Avenue in Rochester. Officers arriving at 525 Lyell Avenue around 1:35 a.m. found 29-year-old Jared Perry and 31-year-old Marquis Chambers had been fatally shot. A woman in her mid-20s also suffered a gunshot wound to the chest and was taken to hospital in stable condition; she was expected to survive. Witnesses reported seeing a man flee the house after the shots.

The Rochester Police Department Major Crimes Unit investigated and appealed for tips. Detectives determined the shooter drove to the Lyell Avenue home, fired on a group on the front porch, killing Chambers and wounding another person, then entered the house and pursued and fatally shot Perry before leaving the state. An arrest had not been announced in the immediate aftermath of the killings in May 2024.

If anyone saw activity around 525 Lyell Avenue that night or has information about the person who fled, please share what you know with investigators.
