On the morning of September 27, 2016, 31-year-old Tyrone Stewart was found in the lobby of 1200 Sutter Ave., a building just north of his residence in the Cypress Hills Houses, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was transported to Brookdale Hospital in Brownsville but did not survive. The daylight shooting alarmed residents and prompted calls for increased police presence and better living conditions.

Investigators arrested a 15-year-old boy, Jyheim Dickerson, who lived in a row house across from the complex. Dickerson was charged with second-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon; a Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office complaint says he admitted repeatedly shooting Stewart and that witnesses corroborated the account. The killing left a family grieving and a neighborhood wrestling with youth violence.

If anyone knew Tyrone Stewart or has information about the shooting, please share what you know.
