Rochester Police Chief James Sheppard says a feud is responsible for at least half of the eleven shootings so far this month. Five of the shootings happened in just the last four days.

Rochester Mayor Tom Richards says he’s angry over the recent spate of violence in the city and just a short time ago, Rochester’s Police Chief told News10NBC most of these shootings were fueled by feuds.

The chief identified the two rival groups. One is from the Roycroff-Durnan Street area and the other is from the Bay and Parcels area, both in the northeast part of the city. Chief Sheppard can’t say for sure. But he believes that 50 to 70% of these shootings are the result of this on-going feud.

Rochester Police have identified the teenager found shot on Rosewood Terrace Tuesday afternoon.

Police say Devin Singleton was found on the ground near the 200 block of Rosewood Terrace just after 12:00pm Tuesday. Police say the 17-year-old had several gunshot wounds to his upper torso.

Police are still looking into a motive. They say Singleton was walking near Hazlewood Terrace and Denver Street when he was shot and that he ran to Rosewood Terrace where he collapsed.

Singleton is in guarded condition at Strong Memorial Hospital. Police are still looking for a suspect.

Rochester Police need help identifying the man they believe robbed the Canandaigua National Bank on Alexander Street late Monday morning.

Investigators say the suspect entered the bank, passed a note and verbally demanded money from a teller. No weapon was displayed.

The suspect is described as 5’6”, thin build, wearing a dark baseball hat with white writing, blue jeans, black sneakers and sunglasses. He was last seen headed south on Monroe Avenue.

Anyone with information is asked to call 911.
