Bronx District Attorney Darcel D. Clark today announced that a Bronx man has been indicted for second-degree Murder and related charges in the fatal shooting of a 57-year-old man using a walker and the wounding of a 34-year-old woman as he fired a gun at a group of men in the Fordham section.
District Attorney Clark said, “This defendant allegedly shot at a group of young men and missed his intended targets. A man was killed, and a woman was shot in this brazen attack while walking down the street.”
District Attorney Clark said the defendant, Brandon Sullivan, 18, of the Bronx, was arraigned today on second-degree Murder, Attempted Murder in the second-degree, first-degree Manslaughter, Attempted Assault in the first-degree, second-degree Assault, and two counts of second-degree Possession of a Weapon before Bronx Supreme Court Justice Gayle Roberts. Remand was continued. He is due back in court on February 26, 2026.
According to the investigation, on May 18, 2025, at approximately 6;45 p.m., on East 188th Street near Webster Avenue in Fordham, Sullivan allegedly fired a 9mm handgun at a group of young men, striking two innocent bystanders. Kevin Jennings, 57, who was walking with the aid of a walker, was shot in the head and a 34-year-old woman was shot in the leg. Both were taken to St. Barnabas Hospital. Jennings later died. Sullivan was arrested on September 17, 2025.
District Attorney Clark thanked NYPD Detective Kyle Keiser of the Bronx Homicide Squad and Detective Richard Garcia of the 46th Precinct for their work on the case.
An indictment is an accusatory instrument and not proof of a defendant’s guilt.
