On the morning of June 6, 2023, in broad daylight on a street near Calvary United Methodist Church in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, 38-year-old Anthony Jones was shot multiple times — first in the head and then in the face — and later died at a nearby hospital. Witnesses reported nearly a dozen gunshots and described chaotic scenes as bystanders reacted.

Pennsylvania State Police investigators quickly named a person of interest and within days arrested a 14-year-old boy, Antonyo Owens, charging him with criminal homicide. Police said Owens and Jones knew one another and that Jones was specifically targeted. The Fayette County District Attorney later charged 38-year-old Calvin Jay Huffman, alleging he hired Owens to kill Jones over a dispute about narcotics, allegedly paying $5,000 in cash and three bags of marijuana. Huffman was charged with solicitation to commit murder, corruption of minors, and hindering apprehension, and prosecutors announced they would seek the death penalty.

Owens was ordered to be tried as an adult after a judge denied transfer to juvenile court; Jones’s family remembers him as someone loved by neighborhood children who opposed gun violence. Does anyone have information about Jones, his movements that morning, or contacts who might help with the investigation?
