Jamel Ahmed Al-Shubili was 18 when he was fatally shot in Murray, Kentucky, on the evening of September 9, 2015. A recent Mayfield High School graduate and class president who planned to study photojournalism at Murray State University, Al-Shubili was at a friend’s duplex on Stadium View Drive around 8:00 p.m. when a single bullet struck his chest.

Witnesses said 21-year-old Tearron Sherrill of Mayfield had been handling a firearm while rapping to music, clicking the gun’s hammer to the beat, before the weapon discharged. Police arrived at 8:22 p.m. to find Al-Shubili bleeding in the driveway and Sherrill beside him; Sherrill was described as holding his wounded friend and attempting to get him into a car. Al-Shubili was pronounced dead later that evening.

Sherrill was arrested and initially charged with second-degree manslaughter. The Calloway County Attorney’s Office briefly upgraded the charge to murder on September 11, 2015, but following a September 18 preliminary hearing the charge was reduced back to second-degree manslaughter; bond was set at $50,000 and Sherrill also faced a tampering with evidence charge after a gun reportedly seen on a couch went missing.

If anyone knew Jamel or was at the duplex that night, please share what was seen or heard.
