Police are hoping a grainy surveillance video will help them solve the 2013 murder of a Maryland mailman.
Tyson Jerome Barnette, 26, of Upper Marlboro, Md., was on duty when he was shot and killed around 7:20 p.m. in the 6000 block of Reed Street in Cheverly, Md. on Nov. 23.
Tuesday, police released surveillance video of a dark-colored SUV, possibly a Jeep Grand Cherokee, they say could be related to the murder.
The murder sparked a conversation between residents and the postal service, that postal office workers were working late hours that made the job a risk.
Fellow postal workers had said they worried about their own safety as well following the murder. "That could have been me," one told News4.
