On the night of June 20, 2020, 16-year-old Frederick Wells, a student at Poughkeepsie High School, was shot in the head and later died at Mid-Hudson Regional Hospital. Police responded about 10:33 p.m. to reports of shots fired near North Bridge and Charles Streets and found Frederick and another 16-year-old; the other teen had been stabbed and survived.

Investigators say Frederick was an innocent bystander caught up in a gang confrontation. He and a friend who belonged to the Gorilla Stone Nation encountered members of a rival Bloods set called Bully Hard Hunna. A fight broke out, during which a gun was dropped; one of the rival group’s members picked up the weapon and fired as Frederick ran, striking him in the head.

The killing triggered further retaliatory violence in the area. Who has information about Frederick’s final hours or the confrontation that night?
