Louis Darren Niles, a 40-year-old Black man from Queens, died on November 23, 2022 after being shot in Springfield Gardens. Police responded to a 911 call about a shooting and found Niles unconscious in the driver’s seat of his 2018 Nissan Maxima at the intersection of 145th Drive and 184th Street; the car had struck a telephone pole. He was taken to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center and pronounced dead from gunshot wounds to the chest.

Investigators from the 105th Precinct determined Niles was not alone in the vehicle. Authorities arrested 23-year-old Shyquell Jervey, a neighborhood resident and passenger in the car, alleging Jervey fired at close range and then fled. Jervey was charged with murder and two counts of criminal possession of a loaded firearm. The motive has not been made public and the investigation is ongoing.

Did anyone in Springfield Gardens see the car or the people involved that night, or have information that could help the investigation?
