The community of Clarkston is reeling from a recent tragedy as local police appeal to the public for assistance in solving the fatal shooting of a teenager. On June 25, just before the night deepened into its darkest hours, 18-year-old Jaherious "Jah" Montgomery was found with multiple gunshot wounds at the Silver Oak Apartments on Brockett Road. First responders declared Montgomery deceased at the scene, marking an abrupt end to a life barely begun.

Clarkston Police Department, committed to bringing the perpetrator to justice, is urging anyone with information about the incident or individuals present at the time of the shooting to step forward. "Detectives with the Clarkston Police Department are asking for the public's help in gathering information related to a fatal shooting at Silver Oaks Apartments," FOX5 Atlanta reported. The authorities arrived at the apartment complex at approximately 9 p.m., according to the same source.

In a display of collective effort to capture the shooter still at large, a plea for public involvement has been underscored in the investigation. Tips can be submitted anonymously—a factor that might encourage more community members to provide any valuable piece of information they possess without fear of retribution. Crime Stoppers Atlanta has become an avenue for such anonymous reports, with potential tipsters informed they may be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.

Continuing in the haunt for justice, Clarkston police have reiterated their request for public assistance. They're "seeking help from the public in gathering information regarding this incident and any subjects present during the time of the shooting," detailed a statement obtained by Atlanta News First. Those looking to assist in the case can submit tips to the Crime Stoppers Atlanta tip line by calling 404-577-TIPS (8477), visiting their website, or texting CSA and their tip to CRIMES (274637).
