On the evening of March 4, 2023, 36-year-old JiaBin Lin was making a delivery for Yummy Yummy Chinese Restaurant on Boston Avenue in Bridgeport when he was shot multiple times in the back in the area of Boston and Palisade Avenues. Officers responding after a gunshot detection alert found Lin lying face down in a driveway with his vehicle’s engine still running and the food order scattered nearby. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Lin was originally from Flushing, New York and had no known family in the United States; authorities later notified his next of kin in China.

Police arrested two juveniles in connection with the killing. A 17-year-old, identified as Justin Castro, fled at arrest and discarded a handgun that officers recovered; he was charged with felony murder, attempted first-degree robbery and carrying a pistol without a permit, ordered to be tried as an adult and held on a three-million-dollar bond. A 14-year-old was later charged with felony murder and criminal attempt at first-degree robbery and held at a juvenile detention center on a one-million-dollar bond.

Did anyone in the Bridgeport area see Lin’s delivery car that night or notice suspicious activity near Boston and Palisade Avenues?
