Nevin King, a 24-year-old African-American man from Boston, was found with a fatal gunshot wound to the chest outside 67 Winthrop Street in Roxbury in the early morning of May 7, 2015. The shooting happened at about 4 a.m.; emergency crews took King to a nearby hospital but he died of his injuries. The Boston Police Department opened a homicide investigation, canvassed the area, and sought witnesses.

A witness reportedly said the shooting looked like an execution, a detail that underlined the crime’s brutality. Police identified King as the victim in the days after the shooting, and despite public appeals for information the case grew cold.

If anyone has information about what happened that night or knew Nevin King, please come forward to assist the investigation.
