Fareed Adeyi, 26, was killed in the Bronx on Tuesday, October 7, 2025. Police say the shooting happened just before 7 p.m. at 3254 White Plains Road in Williamsbridge. Officers responding to a 911 call found Adeyi with multiple gunshot wounds to the chest; he was taken to NYC Health + Hospitals/Jacobi and pronounced deceased.

Investigators describe the killing as a case of mistaken identity tied to an earlier August shooting in which Devonte Moore was critically wounded. Authorities say Adeyi had recently bought a car from the person they believe was the intended target, and that assailants mistook Adeyi for that target. Surveillance footage reportedly shows a 16-year-old exiting a vehicle and firing into the car Adeyi was in. Court documents allege Norman Moore, 64, drove Devonte Moore, 24, and the teenager to the scene.

Three people have been arrested and charged in connection with Adeyi’s death, including murder, manslaughter, and weapon possession counts. Does anyone have information about Adeyi, the sale of that car, or the events around October 7 that could help the investigation?
