A dispute that began inside a Bronx deli on the night of September 24, 2018, ended with the fatal shooting of 46-year-old Sylvester Paul. The fight started around 10:30 p.m. inside a deli on East Gun Hill Road and continued onto the sidewalk in front. During the first confrontation, a man identified by police as 38-year-old Tony Clark allegedly got into a black SUV and tried to run Paul over by driving onto the sidewalk; Paul avoided being hit and Clark drove off.

About an hour later, at 11:30 p.m., Clark reportedly returned to the same location and shot Paul in the chest. Paul ran back into the deli and was taken to Jacobi Medical Center, where he died of his injury. The NYPD identified Tony Clark as the suspect and had not announced any arrests at the time of these reports; Clark was described as a Black male, 6 feet 1 inch tall, weighing 180 pounds, who frequented Port Morris, Mott Haven, and Melrose.

Did anyone see the black SUV or Clark in the area that night, or have information about what led to the initial fight?
