Rocky LaRose was 25 when he was fatally shot inside his second-floor apartment at 148 Lefferts Place in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, on July 10, 2016. Family members say he had been at a street carnival earlier that evening and, upon returning home, encountered people who were in the process of robbing his apartment; he was shot during that confrontation and later died at Kings County Hospital.

The New York Police Department opened a homicide investigation immediately, but in the days after the killing no arrests were announced and no suspects were publicly identified. In the months after Rocky’s death his mother spoke about her grief and her wish to help other families affected by gun violence. The case remains unresolved with no public updates on arrests or suspect identifications.

If anyone knew Rocky, was in that building that night, or has information about what happened at 148 Lefferts Place on July 10, 2016, please come forward.
