On the morning of September 27, 2014, 20-year-old Ryan Aguilar of Wyandanch was fatally shot in the parking lot of Illusions Gentlemen’s Club in Deer Park after an altercation between his group and another as they were leaving the club. Suffolk County homicide detectives say the shooter was a friend and fellow Wyandanch resident, 21-year-old Victor Calderon, who was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. Prosecutors allege Calderon retrieved a gun from his car and fired into the group, striking Aguilar, but the weapon was reportedly never recovered.

Calderon pleaded not guilty at his arraignment; his attorney argued the case rests on conflicting witness statements and said his client was distraught over the death. Aguilar’s family described the two young men as best friends, making the arrest especially shocking to them.

If anyone knew Ryan or was at Illusions on September 27, 2014, can you share what you remember?
