On the afternoon of March 15, 2023, 17-year-old Graig Bassett was shot and killed near Saratoga Avenue and Prospect Place in Brooklyn’s Brownsville neighborhood. The encounter occurred about 4:53 p.m., just a short distance from his Prospect Place home. Security camera footage captured a suspect exiting a nearby bodega, producing a handgun and firing. Bassett was struck once in the chest and taken to Interfaith Medical Center, where he died. Initial reports say an argument among a group of boys preceded the shooting.

The NYPD released images and video showing a young man with a dark complexion, believed to be in his late teens or early 20s, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, black face mask, black jacket, black pants and black sneakers. About three weeks after the shooting, police arrested a 16-year-old and charged that person with murder; police said the suspect and Bassett were not known to each other.

Did anyone in the Brownsville area see the confrontation or recognize the person captured on camera?
