Two months after Melvin White was shot and killed outside a Central Avenue nightclub, three Rochester men have pleaded “not guilty” to charges of robbing and murdering him.

Police say 23-year-old Michael Mighty Jr and  21-year-old Eli Rosa were arrested with assistance from the SWAT Team and Rochester Police Tactical Unit. Twenty-three- year-old Jamol Jackson was already in the Monroe County Jail on an unrelated charge. All three are charged with robbery and murder in connection with White’s death. All three are being held without bail after arraignment in City Court this morning.

White’s family and friends were in attendance, saying he was a father of four and they’re hoping to see justice done.
