Jonathon Kern, a man in his late twenties, was fatally shot in Cotopaxi, Colorado, on September 22, 2018. His death was one of a string of violent killings in Fremont County that year, described as the fifth unsolved homicide in less than a year and contributing to an unusual rise in major crime for the rural area.

Authorities say they do not believe the community faces a continued threat, yet the lack of resolution has left Kern’s family and neighbors without closure.

If anyone knew Jonathon, was in Cotopaxi around September 22, 2018, or has information that could help the investigation, please come forward.
