Zamel Myers, 44, was fatally shot on July 10, 2022, inside the hallway of a New York City Housing Authority building at the Breukelen Houses in Canarsie. He was found with multiple gunshot wounds to his torso and was pronounced dead at the scene shortly before 8:50 a.m. His family said he was a devoted father to three children and described him as a protector and a hardworking, respected man.

Myers’ death compounded his family’s grief: his brother Robert Myers had been killed by gun violence two years earlier. Loved ones gathered outside Zamel’s apartment and left candles in his memory. The NYPD identified a suspect, 45-year-old Leo Lewis, who was located in Greensboro, North Carolina, by the U.S. Marshals Regional Fugitive Task Force and extradited to Brooklyn; he was charged with murder and criminal possession of a weapon. No motive has been made public.

Did anyone in Canarsie know Zamel or see anything in the Breukelen Houses hallway that morning?
