Calvin Lamont Clinkscales, 43, was killed in the early hours of September 20, 2015, when a burst of gunfire struck the courtyard walkways of the Ingersoll Houses in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. Investigators said the shooting occurred at about 1:45 a.m. near 58 Fleet Walk. Trial accounts described a gunman closing in on Clinkscales and Lacount Simmons and firing at close range; both men were struck multiple times, including wounds to the head and torso.

The attack also hit an elderly bystander, Herbert Brown, with a stray bullet to the abdomen; Brown was taken to New York Methodist Hospital and later died. Police circulated video showing a man lingering around the complex before the shooting and then running from the scene, and investigators linked the episode to a dispute between alleged rivals in the area’s drug trade.

The killings left three families grieving and the neighborhood shaken. If anyone knew Calvin, Lacount Simmons, or Herbert Brown, or has information about what happened that night, please come forward.
