Davon Venable, 30, was fatally shot at his fourth-floor apartment in the Lillian Wald Houses on FDR Drive in Manhattan on the evening of January 14, 2022. He was at home with his father when someone knocked just before 9:57 p.m.; the person outside asked if someone had called for an Uber. When Venable opened the door to check, a man dressed in all-black clothing shot him multiple times in the neck and back. Officers from the 9th Precinct and NYPD PSA 4 responded to a 911 call and found Venable with critical injuries; he was taken to Mount Sinai-Beth Israel Medical Center and later pronounced dead.

An arrest was reported months later when 28-year-old Jeffrey Faustin of Brooklyn was taken into custody and charged with murder. Court records show he was arraigned on the charge and pleaded not guilty; he was being held in custody following the arraignment.

Was anyone in the building that night aware of a suspicious visitor or a person posing as a delivery worker asking about an Uber?
