Two Bronx men face federal charges for allegedly fatally shooting one man and injuring two others in the borough last April, prosecutors announced Thursday.
Justis Colon, 25, and Ariel Martinez, 23, were both charged with one count of racketeering conspiracy, one count of murder in aid of racketeering, one count of murder through use of a firearm, two counts of attempted murder and assault with a dangerous weapon in aid of racketeering, and two counts of using and carrying a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence, during which the firearm was brandished and discharged.
“As alleged, the defendants participated in a gang shooting that killed Joshua Garcia and left two other victims injured. We continue our daily work with our law enforcement partners to vigorously investigate and prosecute those who bring violence to our streets,” said U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said.
On April 22, 2022, Colon and Martinez allegedly shot and killed Joshua Garcia during a shooting with rival gang members near 1713 Clay Avenue in the Bronx. Two more victims were also allegedly wounded by Colon and Martinez during the shooting.
