His arrest comes more than a year after the February 18, 2024 incident in which a 47-year-old man suffered a cardiac episode after being assaulted. The victim was taken to Montefiore Medical Center in critical condition and later died on May 5, 2024. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner determined the death was a homicide.

This arrest follows that of 22-year-old Bryan Ciprian, who was taken into custody on August 7, 2024, and charged with murder and robbery in the same case. Ciprian, who police described as undomiciled at the time, was also charged within the 52nd Precinct.
