The family of a Bridgeport man who was shot and killed last year is
protesting for answers outside the Bridgeport police station.
The victim, Heriberto Marquez, was gunned down near the corner of Iranistan
Avenue and Hanover Street on Aug. 30, 2020.
Marquez was walking to his father’s house when he was killed, according to the
family.
Today, the family is pleading for a witness or anyone with information to come
forward as the one-year anniversary approaches.
Marquez’s mother, Elizabeth Delgado, tells News 12 she hasn’t received any
substantial updates from officials since the shooting occurred.
"Until God doesn't take me away and I
continue to breathe, I’m going to continue to call. I’m going to continue to
make noise to my son because I'm not going to let this rest…I’m not, says
Delgado. “If I live to be 70,80 and it hasn’t been solved…guess what? I’m going
to still be fighting. I’m not letting it go until justice is done.”
News 12 has reached out to Bridgeport police for comment, but has not yet
heard back.
