Christopher Glenn was 16 when he was shot and killed outside his home at 51-15 Almeda Avenue in the Ocean Bay Houses in Queens on November 27, 2006. The shooting occurred at about 6:55 p.m.; a 9 mm bullet struck him in the neck. He was taken to Peninsula Hospital Center and pronounced dead.

Detectives identified a 15-year-old, Sashawn D. Simpson of Arverne, as the person who approached on a bicycle and allegedly fired several shots. Simpson surrendered to police with his mother at the 101st Precinct and was charged by the Queens District Attorney’s office with murder in the second degree and criminal possession of a weapon in the second and third degrees; a judge ordered him held without bail. The motive was not established, though there was unconfirmed speculation about a territorial dispute between youth gangs.

Did anyone in the Ocean Bay Houses or Beach Channel High School community see what happened that evening or have information about tensions among local youth?
