Fatal Williamsburg Houses Shooting Has 3 Suspects, Cops Say

WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN — Police have released videos of three men they believe are connected to the death of Justin Rolon, a 25-year-old who was gunned down in front of the Williamsburg Houses earlier this month.

The three men, one of whom might be the shooter, were seen getting out of a white Mercedes before the shooting and walking towards the 218 Maujer St. area where Rolon was shot, police said. They are then caught on video fleeing from the scene in the car.

Emergency responders found 25-year-old Justin Rolon shot multiple times in front of 218 Majuer St. just before 12:30 a.m. on Nov. 3. Rolon was rushed to Woodhull Hospital, but was pronounced dead.

Rolon, who the Daily News reports was a member of the Latin Kings gang, lived just a block from where he was gunned down, records show.

The News said Rolon had been arrested 28 times before his death, including aggravated assault, at least three robberies and stabbing someone with a box cutter, police sources told the outlet. His family told the News that Rolon was a beloved member of their family and cared for his grandmother and younger brother. Rolon was one of six siblings.

Police described the three men they are looking for as all being between 21 and 25 yers old. One was last seen wearing an orange hooded sweater, light-colored semi-ripped jeans and white and black sneakers.

The second man was last seen wearing a black hooded sweater, black jeans and white and black sneakers and the third was last seen wearing a gray hooded sweater, black pants, black sneakers and black hat and seen holding a black jacket.
