In the autumn of 2015, a burst of gunfire shattered the evening calm in Buffalo, New York, leaving a young man's life tragically cut short. Jermaine Moss, a 21-year-old African American male, was fatally wounded on Friday, October 30, 2015, in what authorities believe was a gang-related shooting. The violent encounter unfolded on Fillmore Avenue, a grim scene where Moss and another young man would both lose their lives.
The attack was sudden and brutal.
Shortly after 6 p.m., assailants approached a parked car in the 1200 block of Fillmore Avenue and opened fire. Moss was one of two victims inside the vehicle. When the shooting stopped, the attackers fled the scene on foot, leaving a devastating aftermath. Another individual, 19-year-old Norman Fullenweider, was also killed in the incident. While one of the victims was pronounced dead at the scene, the other was rushed to Erie County Medical Center, where he later succumbed to his injuries.
In the years that have followed the deadly shooting, the case has remained without a resolution. Investigators with the Buffalo Police Department have appealed to the public for assistance, urging anyone with information to come forward. Despite these efforts, no arrests have been made in connection with the murders of Jermaine Moss and Norman Fullenweider. The identities of the shooters remain unknown, and the case is considered unsolved. The motive is suspected to be tied to gang activity, a factor that has complicated the investigation and left the victims' families still waiting for justice.
