Duval Connell, 40, was fatally shot in the Bronx in the early morning of August 3, 2016. Surveillance footage shows Connell standing in front of a Manning Street building at about 2:15 a.m.; shortly after he moved out of camera view two people confronted him in what police describe as a robbery attempt. Connell had just left a nearby deli after buying groceries. During the robbery he was shot in the shoulder, his pants were removed and his wallet taken; the perpetrators discarded the pants in nearby bushes. A makeshift memorial was later placed outside his home on East Tremont Avenue, less than a mile from the shooting.

The investigation produced an arrest: 20-year-old Dwayne Francis was taken into custody and charged with murder, robbery and criminal possession of a weapon. Police say they believe two suspects were involved in the robbery. If anyone saw activity around Manning Street or East Tremont Avenue that night, please share what is known.
