Four Brooklyn Men Indicted For New City Shooting

“The Use of Illegal Firearms Will Not Be Tolerated in Rockland” said DA Walsh

Rockland County District Attorney Thomas E. Walsh II announced today the indictment of four Brooklyn men stemming from a January shooting at a residence in New City, New York.

On the afternoon of January 29, 2022, in the Town of Clarkstown, defendants opened fire on a single- family home in a residential neighborhood in New City, located in the Town of Clarkstown. After a brief vehicle pursuit immediately following the incident, all the defendants were taken into custody through the efforts of the Town of Clarkstown Police Department and Rockland County Sheriff’s Office.

At the time of the shooting, there were several occupants in the residence. Fortunately, no individuals were struck by the gunfire or injured during the shooting. A total of four (4) handguns were recovered following an investigation by the Clarkstown Police Department.

All four defendants: Armani Millier, Garron White, Ivor Minott, and Daquan Young were charged with four (4) counts of Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree (PL Sec. 265.03(3)) and one (1) count of Reckless Endangerment in the First degree (PL Sec. 125.25).

“In Rockland we will not tolerate the possession or use of illegal firearms in our county. I caution any individuals planning to come to Rockland County that the use of an illegal firearm will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

The careless actions of the defendants could have resulted in the injury or death of the occupants of the residence. I commend the Clarkstown Police Department and the Rockland County Sheriff’s Office for their quick apprehension of the suspects and assistance in the investigation. “ said District Attorney Tom Walsh.
The case is being prosecuted by Executive Assistant District Attorney Kathleen Devlin.

It should be noted that a criminal complaint is merely an accusation and that a defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
