Temporary Business Shutdown Ordered by Mayor Evans
Rochester Mayor Malik Evans has ordered the temporary closure of the Roc Town Mini-Mart following a drive-by shooting that left two men injured. The mayor cited ongoing issues and activities at the location as the reason for the shutdown, stating that the store had been on the city's radar for some time. The mini-mart's building has 21 outstanding violations, but the store itself has none. A 28-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the shooting and faces assault charges. Residents in the area expressed concern over the increasing violence and crime.
