On the evening of July 25, 2015, Derrick Hill, a 33-year-old Black man and father of four, was fatally shot outside Rootsman Kitchen on Park Avenue in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Hill had just finished a meal and was leaving the Jamaican eatery around 6:30 p.m. when a gunman opened fire. Hill turned to run back into the restaurant but the assailant continued firing; Hill was pronounced dead at the scene. The restaurant’s owner, Dennis Hines, was struck by a stray bullet and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

Investigators eventually identified two people they believed were responsible. In May 2016, police apprehended 33-year-old Gregory Hughes, who was charged with conspiracy to commit murder. In April 2017, Hughes accepted a plea under the Alford Doctrine and received a prison term with probation to follow. Authorities say Hughes served as the getaway driver; the shooter who actually fired the fatal shots has not been identified.

Did anyone who knew Derrick or who was at Rootsman Kitchen that night see something that could help identify the shooter?
