Donald E. Krosky, 49, was fatally shot in Trumbull, Connecticut, on July 19, 1976, while stopped at a traffic light. Two people on motorcycles reportedly pulled up alongside his car, opened fire and fled. A female passenger, Jean Ann McDaid, was wounded and hospitalized. No arrests were made and the case remained unsolved.

Krosky had been the proprietor of the Village Café and a year earlier, on July 31, 1975, he used a .44 Magnum carbine during a deadly confrontation at the Sandy Hook Hotel in Newtown. That shooting killed Frank D’Amato and Salvatore Saffioti and critically injured Donald Big Red Meredith. Krosky was arrested, tried on two counts of murder, and acquitted after saying he acted in self-defense. He was reported to be affiliated with the Huns, while the men he shot were linked to the Hells Angels, and investigators viewed his 1976 killing as likely retaliatory. Police reportedly suspected Meredith may have been involved, but no charges were filed.

Did anyone who knew Krosky, McDaid, or the clubs involved notice suspicious activity around July 19, 1976?
