On Saturday, Aug. 6, 2011, the Norwalk Police Department responded to the incident that occurred on Avenue B in Norwalk.
Rickita Smalls, age 22, and Iroquois Alston, age 27, both of Bridgeport, were found dead in a small dark car awkwardly parked on Avenue B, said Norwalk Police Lt. Terrence Blake.
Smalls, a 2007 graduate of Bassick High School worked in the bakery at Stop & Shop in Westport, and Alston, 27, who had attended Westhill High School in Stamford, were dating at the time.
This Friday, August 6, 2021, will mark the 10-year anniversary of their homicide that remains a cold case, but not forgotten.
That's why the State of Connecticut is offering a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for their deaths, Blake said.
