On the evening of April 15, 2016, a dispute in Washington Heights turned fatal for 41-year-old Dejon DG McInnis. According to reports, McInnis argued with a group of up to four men at West 157th Street and Amsterdam Avenue; one of the men shot him in the right leg, severing an artery. McInnis was taken to Harlem Hospital, where he died. Police said drugs were found on him and the confrontation was tied to a drug turf conflict.

Investigators identified several suspects from surveillance footage. Two individuals shown in the footage were sought, and later arrests followed: 18-year-old Gaston Taveras was charged with murder and weapons offenses, and 18-year-old Tyreke Singleton faced charges including murder, gang assault, and weapons possession. In May 2017, an 83-count indictment named Tavares Gaston, Tyreke Singleton, Marques McGeachy and other members of allied Fast Money and Nine Block gangs; it included second-degree murder and attempted murder counts related to McInnis’s shooting.

At trial the prosecution introduced surveillance video that, according to the record, shows one defendant approach McInnis, remove a gun from his sweatshirt, point it at him and then McInnis collapse to the sidewalk. Does anyone have information about McInnis, the location, or the people involved that could add context to the shooting?
