On March 5, 2020, inside an apartment on Farmington Avenue in Hartford, 21-year-old Andre Keene was shot. ShotSpotter activation brought police to the scene; Keene was transported to St. Francis Hospital and was pronounced dead early the next morning.

Hartford Police Major Crimes and Crime Scene Division investigators say the attack was targeted rather than random. A suspect, identified as Diomar Mendoza, was arrested in under a day and held on $1 million bond. The weapon used in the homicide was recovered within 14 hours and authorities reported Mendoza did not have a valid pistol permit. The arraignment in Hartford Superior Court sparked a confrontation between two families outside the courtroom that led to several arrests and pepper spray being deployed by a court marshal.

Does anyone have information about Keene’s movements that night or witnessed the incident or the aftermath?
