Two brothers were killed in an apparent targeted attack in Hartford on November 23, 2022. Jonas Deaza-Escobar, 19, and his older brother Cesar Deaza-Escobar, 20, were found with multiple gunshot wounds inside a second-floor apartment on Barker Street after a 911 call around 1 a.m. The brothers had been celebrating Cesar’s 20th birthday; both were transported to a local hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Police say the suspect or suspects appear to have entered through a rear entrance. Investigators canvassed the neighborhood, reviewed surveillance footage, and interviewed possible witnesses, but no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced. Family members and community groups held vigils and urged an end to gun violence.

Does anyone have information about activity near Barker Street that night or surveillance that could help investigators?
