A dispute over alleged threats ended in deadly violence on Ogden Street in Bridgeport in the early hours of May 3, 2015. Miguel Martinez, 35, and his brother Jose Martinez, 33, went to confront 40-year-old Efrain Rivera shortly after 1 a.m. During the confrontation Rivera shot both brothers. Miguel was taken by ambulance to Bridgeport Hospital and died of his injuries. Jose was shot in the shoulder, treated at Saint Vincent’s Hospital, and survived with non-life-threatening wounds.

Bridgeport police from the patrol unit and detective bureau opened an immediate investigation. Officers apprehended Efrain Rivera at the scene; he confessed to the shooting and was charged with Murder, Criminal Attempt at Murder, and Assault in the First Degree and held on $1 million bond.

Does anyone have information about the events on Ogden Street that night or knew Miguel or Jose Martinez?
