After a verbal altercation with his ex-girlfriend, Rose removed a 9mm semi-automatic gun from his waistband and shot Hutchinson multiple times before fleeing. Hutchinson was pronounced dead at the scene.

“The intersection of domestic violence and gun violence can have devastating consequences. Not only did a victim have his life taken from him, but the defendant’s obsessive control and psychological manipulation will cause lasting trauma to the woman who witnessed this cold-blooded murder of her child’s father," DA Roach said.

Rose was arrested a few hours after the murder at his home in the Bronx.

Inside his home police found an empty box of ammunition, packages and invoices for 9mm firearm parts, gun cleaning kits and gun paraphernalia.
