ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren confirmed that New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating after a Rochester police officer shot and killed a man during a traffic stop on the westside of the City of Rochester Friday morning.

“We will comply fully with the Attorney General’s investigation. RPD and the AG’s office are working diligently to give the community the information that they are seeking and I assure you that we will continue to demand the answers that we all deserve,” Mayor Warren said.

According to Rochester Police Capt. Mark Mura, a man in his 20s was pronounced dead at the scene on Glasser Street.

Mura said officers responded to Lyell Avenue around 4:21 a.m. for a ShotSpotter activation — a gunshot detections system. Cameras caught a vehicle leaving the scene on Lyell Avenue and was later seen on Glasser Street, where Mura said officers attempted a traffic stop.

“Cameras caught the vehicle leave the scene. Our officer pulled up behind the vehicle, made a traffic stop of the vehicle and a short time later shots were fired,” Mura said.

Police say “During the traffic stop, one of the vehicle occupants refused to exit the vehicle and after a short period of time, the officers observed a handgun in the subject’s possession.”

According to the police captain, multiple shots were fired from police during the interaction and the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police say the officers involved were not injured. Mura said there was more than one officer at the scene, but he couldn’t confirm how many fired their weapon.

Mura said investigators found evidence of shots fired at Lyell Avenue, where the ShotSpotter activation took place, and at Glasser Street where the traffic stop was initiated.

Several area roads are blocked off at this time around Glasser Street while police investigate. Police say they expect the area to be closed to traffic for most of the day.

“Anybody who needs to be in that general area obviously they’re going to have to avoid Glasser Street for the time being,” Mura said.

During her City budget proposal on Friday, Mayor Warren announced that AG James will be handling the investigation. She also announced that the Rochester Police Accountability Board will receive its full $5 million funding request.

“I also know that all of us are tired and weary from the tragedies we have had to ensure,” Mayor Warren said. “But I ask that we all continue to act with dignity and together we will persevere and create the change we all desire.”

Warren added RPD is in the process of redacting body worn camera footage to release to the public.
