Salaya Figueroa, 27, was shot dead just after 12:30 a.m. one Wednesday in November 2016 outside the Louis Pink Houses, a public housing complex in East New York, Brooklyn. She and her boyfriend were outside a building at 1308 Loring Avenue when a single bullet struck her in the back; police believe she was not the intended target. Paramedics reportedly took some time to identify her gunshot wound at the scene. She was taken to Brookdale University Hospital and pronounced dead at about 2:50 a.m. The mother left three children, then ages nine, seven, and four.

The NYPD identified two suspects, Fred Coleman and Tyrell Rozzell. A reward was offered for information; both men were described as potentially armed and dangerous. In December 2016, 28-year-old Fred Coleman surrendered to police at the 75th Precinct and was charged with murder and criminal use of a firearm. Tyrell Rozzell remained at large at that time.

Did anyone in East New York see or hear anything around 12:30 a.m. near 1308 Loring Avenue that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
