Sean Lamar Fleming, a 43-year-old Black/African American male, was killed in a still-unsolved shooting in Phoenix, Arizona, on December 30, 2015. In the early morning hours that Wednesday, he had been out at a local gentleman’s club, where he was last seen alive at approximately 1:45 a.m. Later that morning, at about 3:49 a.m., his body was discovered at 810 South 17th Avenue in Phoenix with fatal gunshot wounds, and authorities confirmed at the scene that he was deceased.
Official case materials from Silent Witness identify him as Sean Lamar Fleming, also known by the nickname “Munch,” and describe the location of the crime as 810 South 17th Avenue, a Phoenix address where he was found lying after the shooting. Those materials emphasize the narrow window of time between when he was seen leaving or last present at the club and when he was discovered, suggesting that the shooting occurred somewhere in that roughly two-hour period.
Despite the seriousness of the crime, investigators have not publicly identified a suspect. Silent Witness and related crime-tip publications list the suspect and any involved vehicle as “unknown” and treat the case as an open homicide. They note that Sean was found “deceased from gunshot wounds” and that the case remains active, with authorities appealing to the public for information about who may have shot him and how he came to be at that location after leaving the gentleman’s club.
Because no suspect has been named and no arrest has been reported in publicly available records, the homicide is currently classified as a cold case in at least one crime-mapping database, which echoes the Silent Witness description: Sean was 43, died of gunshot wounds, and was last seen at a local gentlemen’s club before being found at the South 17th Avenue address. Crime-stoppers organizations continue to offer a reward—up to $1,000—for information leading to the arrest or indictment of whoever is responsible, underscoring that Sean Fleming’s killing remains unsolved and that investigators are still seeking tips to move the case forward.
