The NYPD on Sept. 18 served the Civilian Complaint Review Board’s misconduct charges on officers Salvatore Alongi and Matthew Cianfrocco for the fatal shooting of 19-year-old Win Rozario at his Ozone Park residence on March 27, 2024.
Rozario was experiencing a mental health emergency and called 911 on himself, according to his family. Footage of the incident was obtained from the body cameras of Alongi and Cianfrocco, of the 102nd Precinct, and released by state Attorney General Letitia James’ office last year. Her office is still investigating the incident.
The officers quickly deployed Tasers when Rozario grabbed a pair of scissors and approached them. The situation escalated quickly, and Rozario’s brother, Ushto, and his mother, Notan Ava Costa, begged the officers not to shoot him. T
