A Meriden neighborhood was rocked in the early morning hours of a Sunday in October 2020 by reports of possible gunfire and two cars seen speeding away near 190 Grove Street. Officers responding initially found no evidence and the area quieted for a time. Later that morning, the body of 34-year-old Casey Eric Schoonover of Meriden was discovered on nearby Foster Court; he had been shot and died from gunshot wounds.

Investigators announced they did not believe the killing was random and quickly identified a suspect, Davis Omar Roman Villanueva. A warrant was issued after Villanueva fled the state for Puerto Rico. He was arrested there on October 18, 2020, and extradited back to Meriden.

If anyone knew Schoonover or saw activity around Grove Street or Foster Court that morning, please share what might help the case.
