Alvin Metcalf Jr. was 29 when he was shot and killed on April 30, 2014, outside a business at 85 Lyell Avenue in Rochester, New York. The dispute began over a used car and a bill of sale; Metcalf was shot twice in the upper torso and was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital, where he died.

Police identified Rasheen Willie Bell as the primary suspect in the shooting. Bell was charged in connection with Metcalf’s death. Video evidence played a central role at trial, showing the shooting; the defense contested the identification of the shooter from that footage. Bell was also charged in a related conspiracy count tied to an effort to hire someone to kill a witness who testified at the trial.

Does anyone have additional information about the dispute over the car or recalls seeing the area around 85 Lyell Avenue on April 30, 2014?
