More than four years after someone shot a female employee of Smokin’ Wings restaurant, authorities have charged two people in connection with the attack.
The shooting took place April 11, 2015.
On Wednesday afternoon, the U.S. Attorney’s Office and New Haven Police Chief Otoniel Reyes announced that a federal grand jury has indicted two people, a 26-year-old from Bridgeport and a 23-year-old from New Haven, with federal robbery and firearms offenses.
The feds and the local cops conducted a “cold case” investigation of the previously unsolved shooting. According to a release issued Wednesday, the indictment alleges that the two people entered the Congress Avenue restaurant that day and “demanded money at gunpoint,” and then one of the pair shot a female worker in the stomach.
