Tanya Collazo was 33 when she was shot to death in a Bushwick basement apartment on August 22, 2015. The shooting occurred inside a Suydam Street residence near Knickerbocker Avenue; she was found in the bedroom with a gunshot wound to the face and a loaded .40-caliber pistol was recovered in the hallway just outside the room.

That morning, Tanya had been with her on-and-off boyfriend, Bryan Gonzalez. He left the apartment shirtless and bloodied around 7:30 a.m., went into a nearby deli and told an employee to call police, saying he had killed his girlfriend by accident, then briefly tried to grab knives before fleeing. Police also found a large quantity of narcotics in the apartment — over eight ounces of heroin and more than half an ounce of cocaine — plus paraphernalia consistent with drug processing.

Gonzalez was arrested and charged in connection with Collazo’s death and the drugs. If anyone knew Tanya, her movements that night, or saw activity at the Suydam Street address, please share what you know.
