A 57-year-old New Havener named Russell McKenzie was shot and killed in the Jocelyn Square neighborhood in the early hours of Wednesday morning — marking the city’s third homicide in as many days.
(Updated) Seventeen-year-old New Havener Daily Jackson was walking on Shelton Avenue Tuesday evening when someone in a “suspect vehicle” shot and killed him and drove away — making him the second Riverside Academy student to die by gunfire in the past two weeks.
“These are connected,” Police Chief Karl Jacobson said at a Wednesday afternoon press conference, at which he described the two Riverside homicide victims as friends who belonged to the same “group” that has been feuding with another youth crew in town.
The two city police officers who tried to arrest and wound up shooting and killing 36-year-old New Havener Jebrell Conley — after Conley appeared to fire first — are back on full duty.

“Sometimes he comes in my dream, and he just plays on his scooter,” Aman said during a Monday morning press conference at police headquarters. “I wish I could do something.”
