East Brooklyn Cops Say They've Found Gregory Bullard's Murderers

CITY LINE, BROOKLYN — Two suspects have been arrested and charged with murder following the Aug. 4 homicide of 24-year-old City Line resident Gregory Bullard, according to the NYPD.

Cops said found Bullard shortly after 8 p.m. that night, shot in the torso outside 2602A Lindon Blvd. (Located near the public Louis Pink Houses and the border with East New York.)

Bullard was rushed to Brookdale Hospital, police said, where he was pronounced dead.

On Tuesday, the NYPD announced that Queens resident Attah Alhassan, 19, and Brooklyn resident Keiosha Robinson, 23 — who lives in the Louis Pink Houses — had been arrested and charged with murder in connection to Bullard's death.

An NYPD spokesman said that prior to the shooting, Bullard had an argument with two men on the street.

(Citing unnamed sources, the New York Daily News reported that Alhassan was one of these two men. But the NYPD could not confirm this info.)

The police spokesman said surveillance video reviewed by the NYPD shows a woman, dressed in all white and carrying a black bag, walking toward the group on the corner of Crescent Street and Linden Boulevard. One of the men arguing with Bullard can be seen in the video approaching the woman, reaching into her bag, taking out a gun and shooting Bullard, police said.

Still, the investigation into the shooting is ongoing, according to the NYPD.
