On the night of March 13, 2014—bleeding into the early hours of March 14—Sage Chebere, a 20-year-old man, was found shot in the West Farms section of the Bronx. Police responding to the scene came into a residential building on Vyse Avenue near East 181st Street and discovered him on a lower floor with a gunshot wound to his torso, already dead.
The shooting wasn’t the only injury inside that building.
A second victim, identified only as a 34-year-old man, had been hit in the leg and was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital, reported in stable condition. The details of what happened in the moments before the gunfire—who had been where in the hallway, what brought the two men together, what words were exchanged—were not laid out in the accessible reports, leaving the public picture to start after the damage was done: officers arriving, one victim rushed away alive, the other left behind.
In the wake of the killing, a public memorial page for Chebere preserved fragments of how people knew him—posts and profile notes that describe a nickname, “Wise,” and references to his school community at Bronx Lab, with commenters returning over the years to mark anniversaries and talk to him in the present tense. The page also collected a short list of news references tied to the shooting, reflecting how the case entered the public record as one more entry in a long roll of city gun violence.
As for suspects and arrests, the clearest trace available through accessible online material is indirect: that same memorial page pointed to a News 12 Bronx story titled “Man arrested in West Farms double shooting.” When that News 12 link is followed now, it no longer loads; however, the URL itself names “Misha Coleman, 32,” and states he was arrested in connection with the Thursday-night double shooting in West Farms. Beyond that headline-level identification, no additional publicly readable details were accessible here about the arrest’s circumstances, specific charges, or any later court outcome such as indictment, trial, plea, or conviction.
