On March 17, 2016, 21-year-old Darryl Samuels was shot and killed outside his home at the James Monroe Houses in Soundview, the Bronx. The attack happened around 3 p.m. while Samuels stood in front of the building; he was struck multiple times in the chest. Emergency responders performed CPR and he was taken to Jacobi Medical Center, where he later died.

Investigators recovered at least five shell casings and a .380-caliber handgun at the scene, but it was not immediately clear who the weapon belonged to. The shooting occurred near the 43rd Precinct and in a NYCHA complex that reportedly lacked security cameras. Police said the shooter fled and no arrests have been announced. Reports note Samuels had 11 prior arrests and had survived a previous shooting.

Does anyone who knew Darryl or who was in the area that afternoon have information that could help solve this case?
