On August 10, 2023, 26-year-old Shaheim Rogers was shot and killed outside an apartment building at 1566 Sterling Place in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. The shooting occurred about 5:28 p.m.; Rogers was struck in the chest and later died at Interfaith Medical Center. A 29-year-old man was also shot in the leg during the same incident and survived.

Investigators tied the attack to a violent feud between the Stain Gang and the Albany Gang, and allege Rogers was a Stain Gang member. Prosecutors say members of the Albany Gang drove into Stain Gang territory that afternoon and opened fire. An extended investigation by the Brooklyn District Attorney’s Violent Criminal Enterprises Bureau and the NYPD’s Brooklyn North Violent Crime Squad produced indictments against 11 alleged members of both gangs, with charges including second-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder.

The indictment names Ibrahima Barry as an alleged Albany Gang member who stole an SUV, picked up others and drove to Sterling Place where the shooting occurred. Did anyone in Crown Heights see activity in the area that afternoon or have information about the rival gang movements?
