Eighteen-year-old Jackson Panyanouvong was shot on October 26, 2019, in the Parkrose neighborhood of Northeast Portland. Police responded after a midday report of shots fired near Northeast Wygant Street and 109th Avenue and found Panyanouvong with a gunshot wound. He was taken to a nearby hospital and later died; the Multnomah County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide by gunshot wound.

Investigators kept the case open while working to reconstruct the afternoon’s events. In March 2023 a grand jury indicted 24-year-old Abdikadir M. Osman on charges that include Murder in the First Degree, Murder in the Second Degree, Robbery in the First Degree, and Unlawful Use of a Weapon. Osman was already in custody on a separate 2020 murder case when the indictment in Panyanouvong’s death was returned and the family was notified.

If anyone has information about Jackson, his movements that day, or the shooting near Northeast Wygant Street and 109th Avenue, please share what you know.
