The NYPD released a photo of a suspect who is believed to be connected to the death of a man who was shot in front of his Brooklyn home almost 9 years ago.

Police say that at 9:43 p.m. on Sept. 19, 2011, officers responded to a 911 call regarding a person shot outside of 977 Greene Avenue. Upon their arrival, officers found 22-year-old Jamal Singleton with a gunshot wound to the torso.

EMS rushed Singleton to Woodhull Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

An investigation determined that the suspect in this case shot Singleton in the back and then fled the scene westbound on Greene Avenue. The suspect is described as a man standing 6 feet, 2 inches. He was last seen wearing a blue baseball cap and a blue sweat suit.
