Naqual Mohammed Dookie Bloodworth was 21 when he was fatally shot on the evening of April 3, 2017, on Gifford Street in Syracuse, New York. After being wounded he managed to reach a cousin’s nearby front porch before collapsing; he was taken to University Hospital and later died. He was a father to a young daughter and is survived by his parents and siblings.

The homicide remains unsolved and no arrests have been announced. The family has expressed frustration with the investigation; his mother, Christy Bynum, has criticized the Syracuse Police Department’s handling of the case. Police have said staffing shortages hampered long-term followup and the cold case unit was disbanded. Tips and interviews have been conducted but investigators report no substantial leads.

Does anyone who lived near Gifford Street in April 2017 remember anything that could help the family and investigators?
