On the night of August 30, 2016, shots were fired on Dewitt Street in New Haven, Connecticut, killing 36-year-old Tyree McCrea and 25-year-old Dyshant Levi Mclean of Hamden. Police responded to a call about 10:42 p.m.; McCrea was found with multiple gunshot wounds, taken to Yale-New Haven Hospital, and died about an hour later. Mclean was pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators said both victims were believed to have been intended targets and recovered two firearms while pursuing several strong leads.

Family members described McCrea as a devoted husband and father of five who had been looking forward to his children’s first day of school and his son’s football season. A separate shooting on the same street in September 2016 was examined for possible links, though the two wounded in that incident were reportedly uncooperative with police. No arrests or publicly named suspects have been announced in the double homicide.

If anyone knew Tyree McCrea, Dyshant Levi Mclean, or has information about what happened on Dewitt Street that night, please share what is known with investigators.
