Dean Artis Daniels was shot and killed in Mount Vernon, New York, on the afternoon of September 22, 2014. Daniels, 30 and a resident of Harrison, was visiting a friend near Park Avenue and East Prospect Avenue around 6 p.m. when individuals approached and shot him twice in the back. He was taken to a local hospital and died of his injuries, which included a pierced lung. Investigators concluded he had been specifically targeted.

The murder was investigated by the FBI Westchester County Safe Streets Gang Task Force and the Mount Vernon Police Department as part of a broader probe into a series of homicides in the city. The investigation tied the killing to members of the Goonies street gang and determined the motive was retaliation for an alleged car robbery. Two named associates, Markel Overton (Kellz) and Raheem Jones (Trigga), remained in a vehicle while two other gang members confronted and shot Daniels.

Who in the community might have seen the group around Park Avenue and East Prospect Avenue that afternoon or has information about the Goonies activities?
