Police Hunt for Suspect After Two Deadly Robberies in New York

Police are continuing their search for 31-year-old Jesus Acosta, who is wanted in connection with two deadly robbery incidents reported just days apart.

The first incident reportedly occurred Sunday in Brooklyn, where Acosta allegedly opened fire inside a fast-food restaurant on Rockaway Avenue.

A 44-year-old man was killed, while another person was reportedly injured.

Two days later, another deadly shooting occurred at 149 Grill & Deli in the Bronx.

According to reports, a 33-year-old customer was killed after shots were fired inside the business.

Investigators are now working to determine the full circumstances surrounding both incidents.

Authorities have also said Acosta has been arrested multiple times in the Bronx, including an attempted-murder arrest in May 2015.

Those prior arrests are separate from the current allegations and do not establish guilt in the present case.

As the search continues, police are urging members of the public to remain alert and to report relevant information through official channels.

Anyone who believes they have seen the suspect should avoid approaching or confronting him.

Instead, they should contact law enforcement immediately.

The two shootings have left families grieving and communities deeply shaken.

For investigators, the priority remains locating the suspect and determining what led to the violence.

For the victims’ loved ones, the search is also about finding answers and accountability.

Until authorities confirm otherwise, Acosta should be considered wanted in connection with the allegations, not convicted of them.

The investigation remains ongoing.
