Rochester Police have identified the victim of Sunday morning’s homicide at a downtown hotel as 19-year-old Brandon Spears.
Police were called to the Radisson at 120 East Main Street at about a quarter to one Sunday morning. They found the young Rochester man on the tenth floor, shot in the upper body. He was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
A number of people were seen trying to get away after the shots were fired. Police took many of them into custody for questioning.
Investigator Francis Camp says it remains an active investigation so the only other thing he can add is a call for anyone who has information about the shooting to please call 911 or Crimestoppers.
