Nelson Viera, 32, was fatally shot in Atlantic City on Friday, January 17, 2014, around 8:30 p.m. Police responded after the city’s ShotSpotter system detected gunfire near Texas and Arctic Avenues and found Viera with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center, City Campus, where he was pronounced dead. The State Medical Examiner’s Office ruled the death a homicide. It was Atlantic City’s third homicide of the year.

The investigation continued for several months without an arrest. On August 26, 2014, 24-year-old Omar Curry, an Atlantic City resident and professional boxer, was arrested on the 800 block of North Virginia Avenue and charged with homicide and firearms offenses. He was held on $1 million cash bail. An Atlantic County Grand Jury later indicted Curry on murder and unlawful possession of a weapon.

Does anyone have information about Viera’s movements that night or about the area around Texas and Arctic Avenues in January 2014?
