On January 4, 2014, 16-year-old Iquan Williams was shot and killed outside a party on Prospect Place in the Brownsville neighborhood of Brooklyn. Emergency responders arrived around 10:30 p.m. and found the teenager unconscious with a gunshot wound to the head; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Family members say his mother had warned him not to attend after hearing there might be violence.

Police report the shooting followed a dispute that erupted outside the gathering, which investigators believe was connected to a neighborhood gang dispute. Before the party there had reportedly been social media boasts about someone bringing a gun. Community leaders and family held a vigil and called for justice in the wake of the killing.

An arrest was announced on January 11; the suspect was identified as a 17-year-old and charged with second-degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon. Does anyone who knew Iquan or who was in Brownsville that night have information that could shed light on what happened?
