On the night of December 30, 2016, Travis E. Ward, 31, of New Haven, Connecticut, was shot and killed in the parking lot of the Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford as concertgoers were leaving a Meek Mill show. The shooting also killed 20-year-old Jaquan Graves; two other people suffered non-life-threatening injuries. Local and state investigators interviewed numerous witnesses as they reconstructed the chaotic scene.

In July 2018 Wallingford police arrested two men in connection with the double homicide: Kyle Hampton, then 23, of North Haven, and Tivon Edwards, 33, of New Haven. Both were charged with two counts of first-degree manslaughter with a firearm and carrying a pistol without a permit. Hampton was additionally charged with tampering with physical evidence; Edwards faced an added charge of criminal possession of a firearm. Court documents say an argument in the parking lot escalated into the shooting, and Hampton later claimed he acted in self-defense.

If anyone who attended that concert or was in the Oakdale Theatre parking lot that night has information that wasn’t shared with investigators, please come forward.
