In the late hours of an August night in 2016, the life of 17-year-old Abraham Owten was tragically cut short in Rochester, New York. On August 11th, at approximately 11:00 p.m., the young man found himself at the corner of Denver Street and Garson Avenue. It was there that the sound of gunfire shattered the evening's calm, and Abraham was struck by a bullet.
Despite his grave injuries, Abraham managed to flee the immediate scene, running a short distance before he collapsed in front of a
residence on Melville Street. Emergency services were summoned, and he was quickly transported to a nearby hospital. There, he was placed on life support as medical professionals fought to save him. However, his injuries proved to be too severe, and he ultimately succumbed to the gunshot wound.
The investigation into the death of Abraham Owten remains an open and unresolved case. Law enforcement officials have not publicly identified any suspects in connection with the shooting, and no arrests have been made. The case is considered a cold case, and authorities continue to seek information from the public that might lead to a breakthrough. They believe that there may have been witnesses to the shooting who have yet to come forward with information that could be crucial in bringing those responsible for Abraham's death to justice.
