On the morning of Saturday, December 7, 2019, Ahmad Fleming, 33, was shot in the torso at the intersection of Second and Judson streets in Albany, New York. He reached Albany Medical Center Hospital but died a few hours later from his wounds. That intersection had seen four fatal shootings in 14 months by that point.

Fleming, known as MAN, was a longtime Albany resident, a former standout high school basketball player, and a creative artist and lyricist who participated in the Capital Rep Theatre. He had served about a decade in federal prison on a racketeering conviction with the Jungle Junkies and had been released in March 2018.

Albany police arrested 30-year-old Quintin Lacy weeks after the shooting, charging him with second-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon. Prosecutors said surveillance video showed Lacy among a group who approached Fleming shortly before 11 a.m. and then showed Lacy firing a gun at him. An Albany County jury later found Lacy guilty of murder and the related weapon charge; sentencing was scheduled for January 20, 2023.

If anyone knew Ahmad Fleming or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
