Shaheed Heedi James, 28, was one of two men shot at the intersection of South Cherry and Church Streets in Poughkeepsie on February 4, 2019. He suffered a gunshot wound to the head and was taken to MidHudson Regional Hospital, where he was placed on life support. The other victim, a 41-year-old man, was wounded in the leg, treated and released. James was removed from life support and died on February 8, 2019.

Police arrested a 15-year-old named Jason Brink and charged him with second-degree murder in connection with James’s death. Brink later admitted he had shot James in the head; prosecutors prepared to seek a sentence capped at nine years to life, with sentencing scheduled for July 29, 2019.

Does anyone have information about the shooting that hasn’t been shared publicly or knew Shaheed and can help clarify what happened that night?
