Kimberly Midgette, a 44-year-old elementary school teacher from the Bronx, was shot in Hempstead, New York, in the early hours of April 1, 2023. She had been in her car on Polk Avenue at about 1:30 a.m., waiting with a friend after dropping off her 10-year-old daughter. A stolen Honda pulled alongside, gunfire came from the other vehicle, and both women were struck; the child in the backseat was unharmed.

Midgette suffered critical injuries and died on April 4, 2023. Investigators say the attack was mistaken identity, intended as retaliation for a prior shooting, and that Midgette was an unintended victim. Three people were later arrested: 27-year-old Oumar Barry of Hempstead, a 16-year-old male whose name has not been released, and 20-year-old Milton Allen of West Hempstead. All three were charged with second-degree murder; Barry also faces attempted murder, assault, and weapons charges. All have pleaded not guilty and their cases are proceeding through the courts.

Did anyone see a stolen Honda or activity on Polk Avenue that night, or have information about who was being targeted?
