Just after midnight on March 7, 2017, 19-year-old Javon Craig was found unconscious and unresponsive on the first floor of the Risley Dent Towers complex on Fulton Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. He had suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene. An aunt of Craig’s lived in the building where he was found.

Police responded to a 911 call reporting gunfire and opened an investigation, but no arrests had been reported in the initial accounts and no clear motive or suspect had been identified. The shooting compounded a family tragedy: in 2009 Javon’s older brother Rasheed was also shot and killed in the lobby of the same building, and that case remained unsolved. The family’s mother and surviving brother were left to cope with both losses.

If anyone remembers seeing or hearing anything around the Risley Dent Towers on the night of March 7, 2017, please share information that might help the investigation.
