Devante T. Baker, 21, was found fatally shot in New Haven, Connecticut, on the evening of November 16, 2015. Although originally from New York, Baker had family ties in Connecticut, including connections to Bridgeport. The shooting is believed to have occurred near 1447 Chapel Street; after being shot he managed to walk to Sherman Court, where police discovered him shortly before 9 p.m. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Early in the investigation detectives examined whether an argument preceded the shooting and released a surveillance image taken from a city bus to help identify him and gather tips. For years the case remained under active investigation with no publicly named suspect. The New Haven Police Department continued to work the homicide with assistance from other agencies.

Did anyone in the New Haven or Bridgeport area see or hear anything on the night of November 16, 2015, that could help solve this case?
