In the early hours of December 20, 2020, a shooting outside the former Mango’z Sports Bar at 456 Connecticut Avenue in Bridgeport, Connecticut, left 19-year-old Jaheim L. Warren of Derby dead. The incident occurred at about 1:00 AM; police arriving at the scene encountered a large, uncooperative crowd. Warren was one of four men shot. He and 24-year-old Andrew Stephenson of Bridgeport died after being taken to Bridgeport Hospital. Two other men, ages 26 and 21, were wounded—one seriously but expected to survive, the other with non-life-threatening injuries.

Investigators described the shooting as stemming from an ongoing dispute and said the two surviving victims were not the intended targets. The bar was operating without a valid liquor license, and ownership and why it was open that night became part of the probe. Warren had been wounded in a separate January 27, 2020, courthouse shooting that grazed his ribs; federal prosecutors later charged five men in that earlier case, but police said it was likely unrelated to the December killings. Anyone with information about the December 20, 2020 shooting is asked to come forward.
