On June 19, 2022, 25-year-old Jelani Green was struck in the neck by a stray bullet while watching a Father’s Day basketball tournament at Half Nelson Playground in the Morris Heights section of the Bronx. The shot occurred as a game ended; police believe the gunfire was connected to a dispute between rival gangs. The wound severed her spinal cord and left her paralyzed from the neck down.

Green was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital and remained hospitalized for two months. Her condition worsened after a stroke in August, followed by infections and collapsed lungs. She died on September 6, 2022, from injuries related to the shooting. The NYPD opened a murder inquiry and released surveillance images of a person they want to question, but by late 2022 no arrests had been announced.

Can anyone who was at Half Nelson Playground that evening or who recognizes the person in the released images share information with investigators?
