Daquan Cooper was 23 when he was killed during a June 25, 2015 dice game in the Parkchester section of the Bronx. Shots were fired in the early morning; Cooper was struck in the head and died at the scene. Another man, 35, was wounded in the legs and survived. Friends remembered the wounded man as a father of two who had been trying to better his life.

Initial police inquiries focused on two men seen fleeing in a silver or grey SUV, and surveillance images were released seeking leads. Investigators later linked the killing to gang activity. In November 2019 federal authorities charged Jose Hov Goon Rodriguez, alleging he committed the murder to boost his standing in the Beach Avenue Crew; a superseding indictment in November 2020 added Kyle Kase Mullings, accused of arranging the killing and supplying the firearm. Both men were in federal custody on other charges when indicted in Cooper’s death.

Did anyone in Parkchester at that time see the SUV or recall anything unusual that morning?
