AFFIDAVIT
The undersigned affiant, being duly sworn, deposes and says:
Snow then read and signed a witness identification form. Snow was then shown a photo array containing a photograph of West in the number three (3) position. Snow immediately identified the person in photograph number three (3) as the person he saw shot Mates in the head. Snow circled the photograph and signed the photo array. 11. That, Kyle Doucette, DOB:04/30/87 provided a sworn statement in which he stated in relevant part the following; "Yesterday was my birthday so me, my mother Karen Askew, my sister Shawndell Askew and my girlfriend, Baughnite Leary went to Swizzle Stix for a little party. My other sister, Shannon Doucette wnrkc; at SWi7Z!P SHy wjth her fi;:>nr.p.' ! ~\~Irp,.,f"'0 ~.~,:,hc "·h,,, \,.", A:"!; " ,C'! 'I~:"~·'·""" <":,. """':"",~'7':" i;::: : \..10tH ivvl at vNL... LIt;: ~liX. 0upenr:lan and Shannon were kind 01 hosting the party for me. Shannon was collecting money at the door and Superman was helping her run the party. We arrived at Swizzle Stix around 11 :00 pm last night. Most of my friends got there between 11 :30 and midnight. During the night one of my friends named Allen got kicked out of the bar. Allen was drunk but I'm not sure why he got kicked out. I continued to hang out and party with my girl. Towards the' end of the night my sister, Shannon came up to me and said that Allen was outside acting up and told me to get him out. I walked outside with my girl and saw most of the crowd outside in the parking lot. Superman was outside trying to calm everyone down and get people to leave. I saw a bunch of people trying to get Allen away from the crowd. I then saw this kid that I know named Andre West who we call" Flea" come up from behind the crowd and walk towards Superman. I thought at first he was going to help break up the fight. Andre walked up to Superman from his side and all of a sudden I saw Andre's raise his arm up to Superman's head and then I heard a gunshot. Andre was about a foot away from Superman when he shot him in the head. I then heard a second shot and Superman fell to the ground. I don't know where the second shot hit Superman. Superman didn't even see Andre coming. I saw blood coming from Superman's head and there was a puddle of blood on the ground around his head. I then saw Andre running through the parking lot towards the back of the building. Andre was wearing a dark colored baseball hat and a white tee-shirt with a dark hoodie sweatshirt over it. I don't know where Shannon came from but she ran up to Superman and started crying. Everyone started running and leaving the parking lot in their cars. I stayed in the parking lot until the police and ambulance got there. I have known Andre for about ten years. We grow up in Meriden and played basketball together at the Boys Club. Andre was at my party tonight and he came up to me and said, " Happy Birthday and shook my hand. I don't have any idea why Andre shot Superman." Kyle was given a witness identification form which he read and signed. Kyle was then shown a photo array containing a photograph of West in the number five (5) position. Kyle immediately recognized the person in photograph number five (5) as the person he knows as Andre West. II
12. That, attempts to locate West at this time have been unsuccessful. (This is page...tL....... of a
