Nor Carroll Gant Jr. was 21 when he was shot and killed in Cedar Falls on the night of June 1, 2014. Police were called to the 1800 block of Tremont Street at about 1:36 a.m. after reports of a shooting; officers found Gant in a yard with a life-threatening gunshot wound. He was taken to Sartori Hospital and pronounced dead shortly afterward. An autopsy by the State Medical Examiner’s Office in Ankeny confirmed the cause of death.

The shooting is believed to have occurred outside near a car during a loud party at a nearby rental property; neighbors said they heard popping noises they initially assumed were fireworks. Cedar Falls police and state troopers cordoned off a two-block area to investigate and interview potential witnesses. Authorities said the shooter remained at large and did not release a suspect description. No arrests have been announced. Gant’s family and friends remember him as outgoing and fond of basketball and video games.

Did anyone attend that party or see activity on Tremont Street that night who can help bring answers?
