Ervin L. Mosley, 55, was shot on Elmira’s Northside in the early hours of Saturday, June 18, 2022. Police were called to the 400 block of West Clinton Street just before 3 a.m. after reports of shots; neighbors told officers the shooter ran into a nearby residence at 424 W. Clinton St. When officers entered they encountered a man coming out holding an AK-47-style rifle. He dropped the weapon but resisted arrest and was subdued with a Taser. Mosley was found wounded in a bedroom, taken to a hospital, and died of his injuries.

Investigators said evidence gathered at the scene pointed to a domestic dispute over property and that there was no broader threat to the community. The man detained at the scene was identified as Taiwan L. Dennard, 42, and charged with second-degree murder. Police executed a search warrant at the house and recovered the rifle seen outside plus additional firearms and ammunition, including two 9mm Glock handguns (one described as a ghost gun with a 50-round drum), a Mauser bolt-action rifle, and numerous magazines.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who remember the night or who can share details about activity at 424 W. Clinton St. in the days before the shooting?
