On the evening of June 22, 2019, 24-year-old Eros Diaz was fatally shot while seated in a car on Winship Street in Hartford, Connecticut. A second man in his early 30s was wounded in the same attack and taken to Hartford Hospital with life-threatening injuries; he survived. Diaz was pronounced dead at the scene.

No arrests were made in the immediate aftermath. Diaz’s family held monthly vigils on Winship Street, erected billboards across Hartford, and collectively offered a $500,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. In June 2023, police arrested 36-year-old Geno McMahon, who lived on Winship Street at the time; he was charged with murder, first-degree assault, and criminal possession of a firearm and held on $3 million bond.

The case later went to trial, and in August 2024 a jury acquitted McMahon of the murder and assault charges; a judge found him not guilty of criminal possession of a firearm, and he was released after more than a year in custody. The shooter has not been officially identified. Does anyone have information about that June 2019 shooting on Winship Street?
