New York State police are seeking information about a Nov. 5 shooting on the Shinnecock Indian Reservation that killed a Sag Harbor man.

Shortly before 10 that night, state troopers found Ali Wisdom, 43, unresponsive and lying in the middle of Old Point Road, according to a news release. He was taken to Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, where he died of a gunshot wound. Mr. Wisdom was not a member of the tribe, police said.

State police have asked anyone with information about the apparent homicide to call them at 631-756-3300. Suffolk County Crime Stoppers, which offers a cash reward for information that leads to an arrest, can also be contacted. The phone number is 800-220-TIPS (8477).

“You need to get out of my room,” a man yelled as he walked into a Surf Lodge hotel room just before midnight on Friday, waking up a New York City woman who had been asleep in the bed. She asked him to test the entry code for the room and closed the door behind him. He left when he was unable to unlock the door.
