Jermaine Gray, a 35-year-old African American male, was fatally shot on November 18, 2018, in Pompano Beach, FL. The incident occurred around 5:30 p.m. when Gray went to the apartment of his ex-girlfriend, Kemeisha Gordon, a 31-year-old African American female, who lived there with her two young children. Gray had gone to confront Gordon about their past relationship.
At the time, Gordon's current boyfriend, Richard Monoroth, a 36-year-old African American male, was also present at the apartment.
During the confrontation, an altercation ensued between Gray and Monoroth. Monoroth shot Gray, who succumbed to his injuries at the scene despite first responders' efforts to render aid.
