On March 16, 2022, a burst of gunfire in the Soundview section of the Bronx left 18-year-old Dellin Scarlett dead. Officers from the 43rd Precinct responded to East 172nd Street and Harrod Avenue around 2:58 p.m. and found Scarlett grievously wounded with multiple gunshot injuries to his shoulder, chest, abdomen, and limbs. He was taken to Jacobi Hospital and pronounced dead there.

The investigation continued for several weeks. On April 2, 2022, police arrested 18-year-old Rafael Saavedra of Olmstead Avenue and charged him with murder, manslaughter, and criminal possession of a weapon in connection with Scarlett’s fatal shooting.

Did anyone in Soundview see or hear anything on March 16 that might help explain what led to the shooting?
