A violent street brawl outside the Xtreme Lounge on Valentine Avenue in the Fordham section of the Bronx on October 5, 2014 left two men dead and several others seriously injured. The confrontation began with an attack on 21-year-old Armani Gonzalez and escalated into a melee involving baseball bats, knives, and gunfire. Dennis Rodriguez, 24, was shot and died at the scene; Gonzalez was shot in the head and remained in critical condition at St. Barnabas Hospital until he died on December 27, 2014.

Four other men suffered injuries that included blunt force head trauma, a gunshot wound to the leg, and slash wounds to the torso and face. The NYPD arrested two teenagers after the incident: 19-year-old Zaire Bansey of Castle Hill and 18-year-old Peter Hajdari of Westchester Square. Both were charged with murder, attempted murder, manslaughter, and criminal possession of a weapon and held at Rikers Island; Hajdari was denied bail.

Did anyone in the Fordham neighborhood witness the fight or recognize those involved?
