On the afternoon of March 16, 2022, 62-year-old Cynthia Reynolds was standing in her front yard on Irving Street in Hartford when a gunshot struck her. She was found conscious and taken to a local hospital around 1:05 p.m., initially listed in stable condition, but died of her injuries on March 21, 2022.

Detectives say Reynolds was not believed to be the intended target and was an innocent bystander caught in crossfire. A Jamaican immigrant, she worked as a certified nursing assistant at Duncaster in Bloomfield and was an active member of the Hartford Central Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses. No arrests have been announced and the Hartford Police Department is asking anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone in the Hartford area see or hear anything on Irving Street around the time of the shooting that could help the investigation?
