On the evening of January 15, 2019, 34-year-old Hispanic male Erick Javier Rivera Jr. was found suffering from an apparent gunshot wound at the intersection of North and Oak Street in New Britain, Connecticut. A passing patrol officer heard multiple gunshots around 7:34 p.m.; Rivera was taken to a Hartford-area hospital and later pronounced dead. This was the city’s first homicide in 18 months.

Within a day, detectives arrested two teenagers in connection with the shooting: 18-year-old Justin Hapgood and a 17-year-old male identified as Wilfredo Oquendo. Hapgood was charged with murder and conspiracy to commit murder, and Oquendo was charged as an accessory to murder; both were held on $2 million bond. Investigators reported the motive stemmed from Oquendo’s belief that Rivera intended to lure him into a robbery, a suspicion he had shared with Hapgood, which reportedly provoked the confrontation.

Where can anyone who knew Rivera or witnessed the incident share information with investigators?
