Lester McLeod, a 31-year-old Black man from the Bronx, was found with a fatal gunshot wound to his torso outside 15904 Harlem River Drive in Manhattan on the evening of September 3, 2016. Police responded to a 911 call at about 6:23 p.m., discovered McLeod unconscious and unresponsive, and he was taken to Harlem Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The New York Police Department kept the case open and sought public help for several years with no arrests announced. On December 14, 2020, authorities arrested 33-year-old Argelos Salcedo of Manhattan and charged him with second-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon; the investigation remained active as the case proceeded.

Does anyone who lived near Harlem River Drive in 2016 or who knew Lester have information that could shed light on what happened that evening?
