On the evening of Tuesday, August 29, 2023, 23-year-old Kelvonn Godbolt was shot in the 1900 block of South Avenue on Syracuse’s South Side after riding his bicycle to a convenience store to buy drinks ahead of his 24th birthday the next day. He was taken to Upstate University Hospital but died of his wounds.

Syracuse Police identified 22-year-old Marley Oselmo as a suspect, obtained an arrest warrant charging him with second-degree murder and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon, and described him as armed and dangerous while seeking the public’s help. Oselmo turned himself in to the Geddes Police Department on September 18, 2023, and was taken into custody at the Onondaga County Justice Center.

Godbolt, a Corcoran High School and Job Corps graduate with a degree in masonry, was remembered by family as a hard worker and beloved relative. Does anyone have information about Kelvonn’s last movements or witnessed the shooting near South Avenue on August 29, 2023?
