On the night of April 24, 2021, 18-year-old Jameik Bishop was sitting on the stoop of his Wakefield home in the Bronx when a shooter opened fire. Neighbors heard gunshots and Bishop’s cries for his mother as he tried to get back inside; he was taken unconscious to Jacobi Medical Center and later died of his wounds after being hit multiple times in the face, chest, and right shoulder. The shooting occurred around 11 p.m. on East 225th Street near Bronxwood Avenue.

Investigators treated the attack as potentially gang-related. After witness statements and surveillance footage were reviewed, the NYPD named a suspect; on May 3, 2021, 19-year-old Omar Barnes was arrested and charged with murder and arraigned in Bronx Criminal Court.

Did anyone in the Wakefield area see Bishop that night or know more about his activities or affiliations?
