On the night of February 26, 2018, 48-year-old Alfanso Anderson was found shot to death in Room 12 of the Sunnyside Inn on Lake Street in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Police responded to reports of shots fired at about 11:30 p.m.; Anderson, a resident of Ezra Street, was pronounced dead at the scene after sustaining at least one gunshot wound. He had emigrated from Jamaica about twenty years earlier and worked in maintenance; his wife, Benita, described him as a hardworking family man who never got into trouble.

Detectives concluded Anderson was an innocent victim in what they described as a case of mistaken identity. Investigators say the intended target allegedly owed a debt to a prostitute and that the assailants were given the wrong room number. Surveillance footage showed three men and a woman walking toward the motel before the shooting and fleeing afterward. Two arrests were later announced in February 2019: Glenn Pettway, 25, and Donnell Williams, 28, were charged in connection with the killing, with police indicating Pettway was attempting to collect the debt and may have been the shooter.

Does anyone have information about the people seen on the motel footage or who knew Alfanso’s whereabouts that night?
