On the night of August 20, 2016, Ailton Goncalves, 35, was socializing with friends on Dudley Terrace in Dorchester when gunfire erupted shortly after midnight. Goncalves was fatally shot and pronounced dead at the scene; a woman with him also suffered life-threatening gunshot wounds and was taken to a hospital. He was described as a beloved son, fiancé, and brother.

The Boston Police Department investigated and arrested 22-year-old Aaron Almeida of Hyde Park about a week later near Morrissey Boulevard and Neponset Avenue, charging him with murder and unlawful possession of a firearm. In July 2017, authorities located and arrested 21-year-old Greg Wright in Columbus, Ohio; he was also wanted in connection with the killing. Both men were charged in the fatal shooting.

Does anyone have information about Goncalves, the gathering that night, or the area around Dudley Terrace after midnight on August 20, 2016?
