In the early morning of August 27, 2016, Jeffrey Kelly, 28, was fatally shot outside the 7-Eleven at Centre Street and South Huntington Avenue in Boston’s Jamaica Plain. Police arrived at about 3:33 a.m. after a report of a person shot and found Kelly with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead. Some reports described Kelly as a well-known local who used a wheelchair.

Investigations continued through that year. In December 2016 the Boston Police Fugitive Apprehension Unit arrested 28-year-old Amos Carrasquillo of Dorchester; a Suffolk County grand jury indicted him on first-degree murder and unlawful possession of a firearm, and prosecutors said the shooting followed prior threats and a physical attack by Carrasquillo against Kelly. Authorities also said the killing violated Carrasquillo’s parole, which included a condition to stay out of Jamaica Plain. In February 2017, police announced charges against a man from Quincy and a woman from Revere in connection with Kelly’s murder.

If anyone knew Jeffrey Kelly or saw activity near the Centre Street 7-Eleven that night, please share information that could help the investigation.
