The Unsolved 9/11 Murder of Henryk Siwiak

On the night of September 11, 2001, Henryk Siwiak, a Polish immigrant, was shot and killed while walking through Brooklyn, New York. He had recently arrived in the United States and was on his way to a night cleaning job when he was gunned down shortly before midnight. His death remains unsolved and stands out as the only homicide recorded in New York City that day, since victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks are not included in official crime statistics.
