Jion Broomfield was a 19-year-old Black man from Beloit, Wisconsin, described by his mother as a social butterfly who loved sports. He had graduated from Beloit Memorial High School the year before and was planning to enroll at Blackhawk Technical College. His death came two months after his 17-year-old cousin, Byron Broomfield, was also killed by gun violence.

On the evening of January 29, 2022, Jion attended a basketball game at Beloit Memorial between his former school and La Follette High School. At approximately 8:55 p.m., shots were fired in the school parking lot and Jion was struck. He was taken to Beloit Memorial Hospital and later died from his wound. Police found evidence of a shooting at the scene and estimated 30 to 40 people had witnessed the incident; investigators initially reported limited cooperation from witnesses.

Community tips submitted through the P3 Tips app led investigators to identify 19-year-old Amaree A. Goodall of Madison as a suspect. A warrant for first-degree reckless homicide was issued, and Goodall was arrested in Holland, Michigan, on March 30, 2022, then returned to Rock County. The case later concluded with a plea and sentence in September 2024.

If anyone who attended the game or was in the school parking lot that night has information, please come forward.
