Kevin Wood was 29 when he was shot and killed during an early morning block party in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn, on August 19, 2018. Wood, a construction worker and member of Laborers Local 79 who had helped build 1 World Trade Center, had lent his car so a friend who'd been hit in the head with a bottle could be taken to the hospital. About 4:10 a.m., after that person returned, an unknown assailant shot Wood in the chest at close range. He was taken to Woodhull Hospital and later died. He left behind a wife and two young sons.

Numerous people attended the gathering, but investigators reported difficulty securing cooperation from witnesses. Police sought surveillance footage from nearby NYCHA cameras; no immediate arrests were announced and no suspects had been publicly identified. The investigation remained open.

Did anyone at the block party or living near Cooper Park Houses see or film something that could help investigators?
