“As alleged, Daniel Idowu and True Womack callously shot at individuals on a crowded Manhattan sidewalk, seriously injuring a 7-year-old innocent bystander,” said District Attorney Bragg. “Thankfully, the child lived and brave police officers were able to act quickly to apprehend these defendants and prevent them from causing further harm. Children are among our most vulnerable New Yorkers and deserve to be safe from the very real, oftentimes deadly, consequences of gun violence. In Manhattan we will continue holding accountable those who commit these violent acts. I wish the victim a speedy recovery.”  

“As alleged, these two men utterly terrified a woman and her young grandchild when they burst into their home, threatened them at gunpoint, and tore apart the apartment before stealing a safe and numerous items of value,” said District Attorney Bragg. “This investigation is ongoing, and we will seek full accountability for this horrific home invasion.”

“As alleged, Joseph Moore purposely sold dangerous, illegal firearms to an undercover officer on several occasions,” said District Attorney Bragg. “The guns Moore allegedly sold had a significant risk of causing harm to fellow Manhattanites, and I am thankful that one of the NYPD’s brave undercover officers was able to prevent the weapons from making it onto our city’s streets. Protecting Manhattan’s communities from gun violence remains my top priority and we will continue using all the tools at our disposal to reduce gun violence.”

“Zachery Bryant will serve a significant prison term for shooting two hardworking New Yorkers in a callous attack that tragically took Mario Gonzalez Alcantara ’s life,” said District Attorney Bragg. “To Mr. Gonzalez Alcantara ’s family and loved ones, he was a loving son, brother, cousin, friend and partner, and I send my deepest condolences to them as they continue to grieve their loss. I hope that the outcome of this case can provide another step towards healing for both families affected by this shooting.”
