Nelson Caban, 24, was shot and killed while driving on the Bruckner Expressway in the Bronx on the night of March 30, 2021. He was traveling southbound on Interstate 95 in a Honda Accord when a blue sedan pulled up alongside; someone inside the sedan opened fire, striking Caban in the face and chest. The shooting occurred at about 10:23 p.m. in the Pelham Bay area between the Westchester Avenue/Pelham Parkway and East Tremont Avenue exits. Caban’s vehicle stopped in the median; officers from the 45th Precinct found him unconscious and unresponsive and he was later pronounced dead at Jacobi Hospital. The blue sedan fled south on the expressway after the shooting. On June 14, 2021, police arrested 18-year-old Luis Rivera of the Bronx and charged him with murder, manslaughter, and criminal possession of a weapon; the investigation that led to the arrest was described as ongoing at the time the arrest was announced.

Does anyone who was driving the Bruckner Expressway that night or who may have dashcam or nearby camera footage have information to share?
