Gang Members Charged in 20 Shootings

Wounded 10 Bystanders - DA says

BRONX - Thirty four individuals have been charged in a sweeping indictment that alleges that two local gangs are responsible for 20 shootings and the wounding of 10 innocent bystanders, the Bronx District Attorney announced.



During a press conference at the Bronx District Attorney’s office on East 161 Street, DA Darcel Clark was joined by law enforcement officials announcing the unrelated takedown of members of the “1300” gang who operated in the Olinville area and the “Slaughtery” gang, who operated in the Fordham and Fordham Heights neighborhoods.


Clark told members of the media, “The defendants continuously put the lives of innocent bystanders at risk with indiscriminate shootings, some during broad daylight, striking a 73-year-old woman who still suffers from the injury and a 15-year-old girl. They put the entire community in danger.”


NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban was not in attendance but issued a statement that read in part, “These arrests should serve as a warning to anyone who thinks they can terrorize our neighborhoods.



After a two-year investigation, 16 members of the 1300 gang were taken into custody and are now facing an 88-count indictment including conspiracy, attempted murder and gang assault.


According to the Bronx District Attorney’s office, three members of the gang have already pled guilty to the assault of off-duty police officer Muhammed Chowdhury, who was brutally beaten as he jogged in Castle Hill in August of 2022.


Meanwhile, 20 individuals from the Slaughtery gang, 17 males and 3 females including five teenagers were charged in a 176-count indictment that included 14 shootings and a stabbing outside a courtroom at Bronx Family Court.


Speaking to the violence directed by the Slaughtery gang in Fordham Heights, Kingsbridge, Highbridge and Morris Heights, Clark said, “A half-mile swath along the Grand Concourse became a corridor of carnage as these defendants allegedly fired guns again and again, wounding their rivals and at least four bystanders in mindless violence.”


The Slaughtery gang members face multiple counts of conspiracy, attempted murder, robbery, gang assault and weapons possession.


All defendants are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
