Elbert Wright, 28, of Massapequa was shot and killed on Somerset Road North in Amityville on the evening of July 31, 2020. Suffolk County Police responded to a 911 call at about 6:30 p.m. and found Wright at the scene with a fatal gunshot wound; the shooter had fled before officers arrived.
Investigators identified a suspect, Colin Jerrick, and an arrest warrant was issued. Jerrick is also wanted in connection with a separate Wyandanch homicide that happened weeks earlier in which Ajala Carpenter-Toney was killed and several people were injured at a party. Authorities describe Jerrick as armed and dangerous and have linked him to Huntington Station, Bay Shore, Florida, and Guyana. As of late 2022, he remained a fugitive and the search was ongoing.
Does anyone who lived in the area at that time have information that could help bring new leads?
