On the evening of April 27, 2021, a burst of gunfire at the intersection of East 216th Street and Olinville Avenue in the Olinville section of the Bronx left Robert Hill, 39, with a fatal gunshot wound to the chest. Police found him at the scene; paramedics transported him to Montefiore Medical Center where he was pronounced dead. A 27-year-old woman who had been with Hill was also struck in the torso and taken to the same hospital in stable condition.

The investigation later produced an arrest: on July 5, 2021, the New York Police Department arrested 41-year-old Omar Briscoe and charged him with murder, manslaughter, and criminal possession of a weapon in connection with the shooting. The investigation is described as ongoing.

If anyone has information about what happened that night or knew Robert Hill, please share tips with investigators.
