Andy Desravines, 42, was fatally shot on the evening of Friday, October 10, 2025, in the Prospect Park South neighborhood of Brooklyn. The shooting happened just before 8:40 p.m. in front of an apartment building at 80 East 18th Street near Church Avenue as Desravines was walking home after getting off the train from his job with New York City Parks and Recreation. He suffered gunshot wounds to the abdomen and left leg and was taken to Kings County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. His death occurred two days before his 42nd birthday.

Those who knew him described him as hardworking and caring; he lived with and often looked after his mother and was a father of two. Neighbors reported hearing an argument shortly before the shooting, and surveillance video shows people turning toward a commotion moments before police arrived. Some residents thought the gunman may have been targeting someone else, while another suggested Desravines was the intended victim. As of the days immediately following the shooting, no arrests had been made and the NYPD investigation was ongoing.

Did anyone in Prospect Park South around East 18th Street that night see or hear something that could help investigators?
