Rickie Young was 37 when he was fatally shot in the early morning hours of Friday, September 4, 2015. Young, who had recently opened Taste of Brooklyn Cafe in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens and was known to friends as Brooklyn Tricky, was sitting in his car on Lefferts Avenue near his home and about a block from the cafe when he was ambushed and shot twice, suffering wounds to his jaw and shoulder.

Despite driving himself nearly ten blocks to Kings County Hospital, Young succumbed to his injuries at the hospital. The NYPD opened a homicide investigation and asked the public for help; initial reports did not make clear whether a single shooter or multiple people were involved. No arrests have been publicly announced and the case remains unsolved.

Did anyone in the neighborhood at the time see or hear anything that could help identify who attacked Rickie Young?
