On March 16, 2019, shortly before 9:30 a.m., police responded to a 911 call behind the NYCHA building at 474 Marcy Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant and found 47-year-old Deshawn Smart of Red Hook lying next to a Citi Bike, unconscious and unresponsive. He had sustained a single, fatal gunshot wound to his torso and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Initial reports say investigators were searching for suspects and the NYPD advertised the Crime Stoppers hotline for tips. No arrests have been announced and the case has grown cold; the identity of any suspect or suspects remains unknown and the investigation is ongoing.

Did anyone in the neighborhood see anything that morning or have information that could help bring answers to Deshawn Smart’s family?
