Paul J. Byrd was 46 when he was ambushed on Cornwall Avenue in Buffalo’s Grider-Delavan neighborhood on the afternoon of January 9, 2017. He was seated in the driver’s seat of a vehicle at about 4:00 p.m. when one or more people opened fire, striking him multiple times; he died later that day despite emergency treatment.

Buffalo Police investigated and by August 2017 said they had very strong leads. A reward to encourage witnesses began at $2,500 from the Buffalo Police and Crime Stoppers and was later increased to $7,500 with donations from anonymous citizens. No suspects have been publicly named and no arrests have been announced, and the motive remains unclear.

Does anyone who was in the Grider-Delavan area that day or who knew Paul have information that could help bring answers?
