In the early hours of a Tuesday morning in April 2014, a confrontation that began inside the Copabanana restaurant and bar at 40th and Spruce Streets in Philadelphia turned deadly. Timothy Antoinne Cary, 31, was shot multiple times on the sidewalk after an argument with another man. He was struck in the head, chest, a leg, and both hands and later died at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. Timothy is described as a son, brother, father, and friend in his community.

University of Pennsylvania police officers arrested 26-year-old Corey Gaynor a short distance away at 41st and Pine Streets. A .45-caliber semiautomatic pistol was found on the ground less than a block from the scene, and several witnesses, including Timothy’s girlfriend, identified Gaynor as the man who fled and discarded the weapon. Gaynor was charged with first-degree murder and related weapons offenses.

In March 2016 a Philadelphia Common Pleas Court jury found Corey Gaynor guilty of first-degree murder; the judge imposed a mandatory life sentence without parole. If anyone knew Timothy or witnessed the shooting outside Copabanana that night, what can be added to the record?
