Marley Rowe, a 23-year-old father, has been identified by Hamilton police as the city's first homicide victim of 2014. 

Rowe was found shot in the head and dying when emergency crews responded to a shooting call just four and a half hours into the new year. Police say Rowe had been at "a house party" near Sherman and Barton that evening. He was transported to Hamilton General and pronounced dead there a short time later.
Rowe, himself one three children of a single mother, became a father in 2012, according to posts on Facebook by family and friends. 

Police have not released any details of what may have led to his shooting, other than mentioning the party he'd been at. They are seeking to speak with anyone who also attended the party, believed to be held at 169 Sherman Avenue North, just north of Barton St. 


Anyone with information about the party or the shooting is asked to contact Detective Dave Oleniuk at 905-546-3874.
