A street confrontation on Thanksgiving night in Manhattan ended in a fatal shooting. Daniel Straker, 48 and a Bronx resident, was shot in the back around 11:45 p.m. on Thursday, November 23, 2023, in front of 67 Macombs Place in Harlem. He was taken to NYC Health + Hospitals/Harlem and pronounced dead.

Police say the encounter began when Straker allegedly snatched a chain from another man; video and police reports indicate the man from whom the chain was taken then produced a firearm and shot Straker. No arrest was made at the scene, and the NYPD initially continued its investigation. On Thursday, November 30, 2023, a 47-year-old named Victor Jones was arrested and charged with murder, reckless endangerment, and criminal possession of a weapon.
