Lequan Young, a 24-year-old Black man from New Haven, was fatally shot the night of Sunday, July 26, 2015, in a West Haven neighborhood near Jaffrey and Dalton streets. Police were dispatched after reports of gunfire at about 9:45 p.m.; officers found multiple shell casings in the street but no victim at the scene. Yale New Haven Hospital then notified police that a man with a single gunshot wound to the chest had been brought to its emergency room. That man was identified as Lequan Young, who later died at the hospital.

Investigators determined another person had transported Young to the hospital and that the shooting likely occurred on Dalton Street between Jaffrey and Tuthill. Neighbors said the generally quiet area was filled with many young people that night and that multiple gunshots were heard, initially mistaken by some for firecrackers. The scene was cordoned off and searched through the night, but no public announcements about arrests or identified suspects have been made and the case is considered cold.

Did anyone in the West Haven or New Haven area hear or see anything that night or have information about who transported Young to the hospital?
