On the evening of July 1, 2023, 15-year-old Wesley Vasquez was fatally shot on a basketball court in Manhattan’s Riverbank State Park. The Black/African American teenager was at a public park used by families and young people when the violence occurred, leaving the neighborhood reeling.

Days later, police arrested 36-year-old Anibal Cruz of the Bronx and charged him with second-degree murder in connection with Vasquez’s death. Reports from the investigation say Cruz may not have acted alone; eyewitnesses said Cruz handed latex gloves to four other people before shots were fired, and his son may have been with him at the scene. The motive for the shooting has not been reported.

Does anyone who was at Riverbank State Park that evening or who knew Wesley have information that could help clarify what happened?
