Just after midnight on March 5th, Boise Police Officers responded to a report of a shooting at an apartment on the 3300 block of N. Lakeharbor Ln, near Silver Lake.

When they arrived, Boise Police Department officers found Maximilian Myers, a 26-year-old man, lying on the ground with a gunshot wound to his stomach. The officers administered lifesaving care until paramedics arrived. Officers then cleared the apartment and located a woman and child who were both unharmed.

The suspect in the shooting was identified as Javon Harmon, a 24-year-old man from Dover, Delaware. Harmon was detained in the parking lot outside of the apartment.

Myers was transported to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise, where he was pronounced dead in the operating room after lifesaving measures were unsuccessful.

Detectives are continuing to investigate the incident.
