Jeffrey Pierre, 42, was shot dead just before midnight on Thursday, December 22, 2022, on White Plains Road in the Wakefield section of the Bronx. Officers from the 47th Precinct found him outside a local bar with multiple gunshot wounds to the torso; he was taken to Jacobi Medical Center and pronounced dead. Police say Pierre had been involved in an argument with another person when an unknown gunman approached, opened fire, and fled in a gray vehicle.

No motive has been released and investigators have not said whether the gunman knew the person Pierre argued with. Authorities have circulated images of a person of interest and asked the public for help identifying them. Pierre had a previous criminal history: he was charged in a 2014 incident that left two men dead, acquitted of murder but convicted of gun possession, and paroled in May 2021.

Does anyone have information about the shooting that could help identify the person of interest?
