A late-November shooting on Richmond’s Southside ended the life of 24-year-old Javar Mayo. The gunfire happened on November 30, 2016; Mayo was wounded in that incident and died of his injuries on December 1, 2016. A second person was also wounded in the same shooting, and police initially treated it as a double shooting.

The Richmond Police Department later classified Mayo’s death as a homicide. He attended Thomas Jefferson High School and is remembered by friends and family. No arrests have been announced, no suspect descriptions have been released, and the case remains listed among the city’s unsolved homicides from 2016. The circumstances that led to the violent encounter have not been disclosed.

If anyone knew Javar, witnessed the shooting, or has information that could help the investigation, please share what you know.
