The Murdered Shawn and Neshawn Plummer

The Murdered
Shawn & NeShawn Plummer
Queens, New York

At 2:45 p.m. on Friday, July 13, 2012, 18 year old high school football player Shawn Plummer was shot and killed while riding his bicycle near his home on Seagirt Boulevard between Beach 30th and Beach 28th Streets in Far Rockaway, Queens, New York. He had another teenager on his handlebars when the shots began. Shawn was hit in the forehead.
Shawn’s mother, Sharon, said he was a good kid that was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. These gunshots were intended for someone else. Shawn had aspirations of being a mechanic.
On the same day, there was another shooting in the area of Beach 22 Street and Dix Avenue in Far Rockway but thankfully no one was injured. The day after the murder, July 14, a 22 year old man was shot once in the buttocks in front of 1436 Beach Channel Drive. He was transported to Jamaica Hospital where he recovered. It is unclear if any of these shootings are related.
Sharon moved away to Brooklyn after Shawn’s passing, in an attempt to save her younger son Neshawn from suffering the same fate due to the gang violence in the area. Devastatingly, just 3 years later, at 9:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 30, 2015, 16 year old Neshawn was shot in the head while riding his bicycle in the vicinity of 25-18 Seagirt Avenue, just 2 blocks from where his brother was killed. Neshawn was back in Far Rockaway to visit friends that day. He unintentionally got in the middle of gunfire between rival gang factions. He was taken to St. John’s Hospital but was ultimately taken off of life support on Tuesday afternoon.
Neshawn had dreams of becoming a pediatrician.
Police released two videos of a several men running from the scene of the shooting. But their faces can’t be seen.
Sharon is now involved in anti gun violence groups after the murder of both of her boys.
This family deserves justice.
