Bahy Altairi was 21 when he was shot and killed inside Tobacco & Vapes near 32nd and L Streets in Omaha on the evening of October 2, 2019. Officers who responded around 7:30 p.m. found him dead inside the family business where he worked. Early reports said the killing occurred during a robbery at the shop.

Investigators released surveillance images and within days a 17-year-old was arrested. Prosecutors charged that suspect with first-degree murder and use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony, and court filings describe the assailant entering the store, shooting Altairi, and taking a firearm from behind the counter. Authorities later said the same suspect was charged in a separate shooting about two hours later that seriously wounded another man, and that a second teenager, Marshaun Box, faced conspiracy charges tied to the incidents. A judge set bond at $500,000 as the case proceeded.

If anyone was in or near the store that evening or has footage or information about the sequence of events, please share what is known.
