Further details on conclusions.
At approximately 3:14 AM on 07/12/05, [redacted] was riding in the front passenger seat of his vehicle, a white Mitsubishi Gallant with tinted windows. His cousin, [redacted] was driving and a friend of [redacted]'s named [redacted] was riding in the rear. The three men were coming from the Marcy Houses in Bedford-Stuyvesant in Brooklyn and were on their way to [redacted]'s wife's house in Canarsie in Brooklyn, where they intended to pick up [redacted]'s epileptic step-daughter so that they could take her to the hospital.
