In the late hours of a spring evening in Rochester, New York, 31-year-old Marshall Cameron "Mo" Knibbs was on Pardee Street, in the vicinity of Joseph Avenue, when the sound of gunfire shattered the night's quiet. It was shortly before 10:30 p.m. on April 21, 2015, when police received a call reporting the shooting. Upon their arrival, officers discovered Knibbs suffering from at least one gunshot wound to his upper body.
He was a male.
Emergency services transported him to Strong Memorial Hospital, but tragically, his injuries proved to be too severe. Marshall Knibbs died approximately two hours later, in the early morning of April 22, 2015. The initial police investigation into the shooting began immediately, but authorities reported that there were no suspects in custody at the time. The investigation into who was responsible for his death was declared to be ongoing.
In the days that followed, the community mourned the loss of "Mo," as he was affectionately known. His family, including his son, parents, and siblings, were left to grapple with the sudden and violent end to his life. While his death was ruled a homicide, public online sources and news reports in the years since the shooting have not provided any updates regarding arrests or the identification of any suspects. The case of who shot and killed Marshall Knibbs remains without a publicly reported resolution.
