On the morning of May 21, 2014, Lamont Smith, 45, of Yonkers was shot dead outside P.S. 112 on Schieffelin Avenue in the Bronx. Around 9 a.m., a U-Haul truck pulled up, and a man identified as 43-year-old Dwayne Reid of Larchmont leaped from the vehicle and fired two shots at Smith, one striking him in the head. Reid returned to the truck, came out again and fired additional shots at Smith as he lay wounded, then fled.

Smith and Reid had been together the day before, with Reid helping Smith move equipment for Smith’s T-shirt business using the same U-Haul. Phone calls between them began around 5 a.m. on the day of the shooting, but investigators and family have not established a clear motive. Reid was arrested the same day at his mother’s house; police recovered a .38-caliber revolver and charged him with second-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon.

Did anyone in the Edenwald community know Smith or have information about his relationship with Reid that could shed light on why this happened?
