Elderly man dies 47 years after NYC shooting, death ruled homicide: cops

An elderly man, Paul Dawkins, tragically passed away more than four decades after being shot in East Harlem. The incident occurred on January 15, 1976, when Dawkins was shot in the chest on East 103rd Street near Second Avenue. Despite the severity of his injuries, Dawkins bravely fought for his life until April 22, 2023, when he ultimately succumbed to the gunshot wound at the age of 79.

The recent ruling by the city medical examiner’s office classified Dawkins’ death as a homicide, shedding new light on the long-dormant case. The announcement was made by authorities on Tuesday night, sparking renewed interest in the investigation.

The circumstances surrounding the shooting remain unclear, with the NYPD unable to provide further details on the incident or how Dawkins’ death was directly linked to the gunshot. The lack of information has left many questions unanswered, adding to the mystery surrounding the case.

Despite the passage of time, no arrests have been made in connection with Dawkins’ shooting, and no suspect information has been disclosed. The lack of progress in the investigation underscores the challenges of solving cold cases and bringing closure to victims and their families.

As the investigation into Dawkins’ death continues, authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward and assist in unraveling the events that led to the elderly man’s tragic demise. The case serves as a reminder of the lasting impact of violence and the importance of seeking justice, no matter how much time has passed.
