Bridgeport homicide solve-rate surpasses national average

BRIDGEPORT — It was a quiet, rainy Saturday morning on the East Side when gunfire took another life. Police said a gun-wielding suspect approached 22-year-old Khali Davis at around 10 a.m. on Dec. 23 and shot him in the face, seemingly with no regard for nearby surveillance cameras or witnesses. Davis was standing with a group of people outside Maple Deli when he was shot. Police said he collapsed into the doorway of the deli, where he was pronounced dead by first responders when they arrived on scene. Davis’ murder was the most recent in the city, possibly the last in 2017, bumping Bridgeport’s total for the year to 23 — more than double 2016’s total of 10.
