On the evening of March 26, 2023, a trip from Philadelphia to New York City ended in a deadly encounter in Harlem. Around 9:00 p.m., 24-year-old Alonza Georgia was in the lobby of his apartment building, the Saint Nicholas Houses on West 131st Street, when two masked men approached him and held firearms to his head. They forced him outside, a struggle ensued, and Hassan Winston fired at him while he was on the ground. The assailants took cash that had fallen during the struggle and fled in a rented box truck.

Georgia was taken to a nearby hospital and died of a gunshot wound to the torso the next day. The NYPD identified Zaire Allen, then 19, and 22-year-old Hassan Winston as the suspects, executed a search warrant at Winston’s apartment on March 30, 2023, and arrested both men after related searches turned up firearms and clothing matching the incident. Both were charged in the case.

Did anyone who knew Alonza notice anything unusual about his trip or plans that night?
