Matthew Young, 20, was found dead of a gunshot wound on Mercer Drive in Monticello, Kentucky, on August 23, 2017. The Monticello Police Department discovered his body after an incident that reportedly began with an earlier altercation between a friend of Young and another individual.

Police identified a 16-year-old suspect, later named in reports as Dylan Mason. According to Young’s fiancée, the confrontation escalated when the suspect struck Young in the face with a firearm and then shot him. The shooting followed the earlier dispute and left Young’s family and the local community reeling.

Few public details are available about the investigation’s day-to-day progress. If anyone in Monticello has information about Matthew Young, his movements that day, or the people involved, please come forward.
