Joann Gravette, 36, was found shot to death in her Far Rockaway apartment on the morning of January 27, 2016. A neighbor reported hearing a commotion followed by a loud boom, and surveillance footage later showed her ex-fiancé, Tyquan Long, entering her apartment that morning and leaving minutes later carrying what appeared to be a firearm. In the days before the killing, Gravette had an active order of protection against Long and had told him to leave her alone.

After Gravette was killed, the same man allegedly confronted and shot a 51-year-old female neighbor in the building lobby; that neighbor survived. Long left the state and was later tracked to Sacramento, California, where he was arrested and returned to New York to face charges including second-degree murder and attempted murder.

Does anyone have additional information about Joann’s life in Far Rockaway or heard anything the morning of January 27 that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
