On the afternoon of Tuesday, August 6, 2019, 18-year-old Mohammed Touray was fatally shot in a bedroom of an apartment on Sheridan Avenue in the Bronx. Emergency services found him with a single, fatal gunshot wound to the chest and he was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Authorities quickly concluded the shooting was accidental and involved family members. Mohammed’s 21-year-old cousin, Omar Turay, was identified as the person who fired the pistol while the two cousins were handling it; the weapon was recovered and Omar Turay was taken into custody. He was later charged with manslaughter and criminal possession of a weapon and released on $15,000 bond. He attended Mohammed’s funeral, which drew many mourners from their community.

Did anyone in the Bronx community attend that funeral or have additional information about what followed?
