JASMINE AKINS

Jasmine Akins left a birthday party with a couple of friends in the early morning hours of Sunday, September 7, 2014. 

It was a busy weekend on downtown streets, and quite a few people were around when the 19-year old got out of the car near the corner of Market and 20th Streets. 

At the same time, someone started firing at the car, killing Akins and injuring 21-year old Dominiqick Fitch and 24-year old Darrell Armour, Jr.  

Jasmine may have been an unintended victim of gang violence. Detectives believe witnesses know who is responsible for taking her life but suspect fear is holding them back from giving us the information we need to bring Jasmine's killers to justice. 

Akins left behind a two month old daughter, Journey, who's now growing up without her mother. We need someone to come forward and tell us who robbed Journey of her mother.
