On the evening of May 31, 2018, 28-year-old Tyekqua Nesbitt was shot and killed while sitting in her car near Wintergreen Avenue and Wilmot Road in New Haven, Connecticut. Her two children, ages six and eleven, were in the backseat and witnessed the shooting.

Police identified 41-year-old Tramaine Marquese Poole as the suspect and obtained an arrest warrant charging him with murder, criminal possession of a firearm, carrying a pistol without a permit, two counts of risk of injury to a minor, and unlawful discharge of a firearm. Authorities described Poole as armed and extremely dangerous, and a multi-agency search followed, with the U.S. Marshals Violent Fugitive Task Force offering a cash reward for information.

On August 1, 2018, Poole was killed in a shootout with Virginia state troopers after a pursuit of a stolen vehicle he was driving. Nesbitt’s family publicly pleaded for help in locating Poole after the killing and described the lasting trauma to her children and the void left by her death.

Did anyone in the New Haven area witness the shooting or have information about Tyekqua’s movements that night?
