When officers arrived, they found 14-year-old Jared Flemming in front of an apartment suffering multiple gunshot wounds. Flemming was transported to Sunrise Trauma Center where he was pronounced dead a short time later.

Homicide detectives arrived on scene and learned that Flemming was having a birthday party at the complex. During the party, three uninvited teens arrived and one of them pulled a gun. Several people from the party began to run and the suspect started firing. Flemming was struck several times by gunfire.

At least one juvenile suspect has been arrested. Anyone with information is asked to call CrimeStoppers at 385-5555.
