On the morning of September 12, 2015, Clarence Bryant, 32, was seated in the back of a double-parked car on 86th Street in the Gravesend neighborhood of Brooklyn when a gunman approached and opened fire through an open window at about 5:30 a.m. Bryant was struck eight times — two bullets to the face and six to the back. He attempted to crawl to the front seat and the driver rushed him to Coney Island Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Surveillance video of the shooting showed the attacker fleeing in a waiting vehicle and became an aid in the investigation. The inquiry resulted in the arrest of 25-year-old Deyshawn James of Crown Heights; he was charged with Bryant’s murder. After a jury trial, James was convicted of second-degree murder and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon and, in March 2018, a Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice sentenced him to 37 years to life.

Bryant was a father of four. Does anyone have memories of him or information about that early-morning shooting?
