Seventeen-year-old Chester High School student Sabrie Breezy Pierce was shot and killed on June 9, 2024, outside the Wallingford Estates Apartments in Chester, Pennsylvania. The shooting happened about 8:11 p.m. during an attempted marijuana transaction involving two ounces; an assailant who came from a nearby wooded area approached the vehicle and fired, striking Pierce twice in the chest. He was taken to a local hospital and died of his injuries.

Authorities arrested 17-year-old Abdullah N. Muslim in the days after the shooting and charged him as an adult with first-degree murder and related offenses; surveillance footage reportedly placed Muslim at the scene and he was detained within 48 hours. Pierce’s death deeply affected the Chester community and Chester High School, where he was remembered for a vibrant personality and kind heart. The district provided social workers and counselors, and a memorial service was held on June 21, 2024, at Lewis Hunts Funeral Home in Chester.

If anyone knew Sabrie or has information about the shooting, please come forward to help the investigation.
