On the night of March 30, 2024, an armed robbery at an illegal gambling club on Stratford Avenue in Bridgeport turned deadly. According to reports, 32-year-old Tayvon Geter and 30-year-old Richard Davis entered the club wearing masks and armed; a gambler inside, also armed, fired while being robbed. Both Geter and Davis were struck multiple times and died; the shooter was also hit but survived. A 35-year-old woman was grazed by a bullet while fleeing and a 25-year-old man was injured.

The aftermath produced several arrests related to the club and the shooting’s immediate aftermath. Shanica Merced, 35, was charged with conspiracy to commit robbery and illegal gambling after surveillance footage reportedly showed her letting the two men into the club. Marcus Farmer, 37, and Sean Ellam, 38, were charged with crimes including criminal possession of a firearm, tampering with evidence, illegal gambling, and stealing firearms after video allegedly showed them taking guns from the bodies.

Who in the Bridgeport area might have information about the club, the people involved, or the night of March 30?
