The name of the teenager shot and killed last week on Westchester Circle in Athens has been released: Keshawn Gainer was 15 years old. He was shot multiple times with what appears to have been a handgun. There is no word yet from Athens-Clarke County Police investigators on suspects or motive for the deadly shooting.
