A weekday‑afternoon stroll through a busy Bronx intersection ended in gunfire on August 15, 2021. At about 1:10 p.m. at East 149th Street and Brook Avenue, 43‑year‑old Luis Villegas was struck in the torso and later died after being taken to Lincoln Hospital. A second 43‑year‑old man was shot in the leg and treated at the same hospital; his condition was reported as stable.

The 40th Precinct of the NYPD opened a homicide investigation into the daylight shooting.

Did anyone see activity around East 149th Street and Brook Avenue that afternoon or have information that could help investigators?
