ANONYMOUS TIP
LEADS TO MURDERER’S
ARREST
Thanks to an anonymous tipster, detectives
tracked down a Bushwick man
allegedly behind a shooting at a local
playground last week that claimed a
Ridgewood man’s life and injured two
other victims, police announced on
Monday, July 30.
Damien Grimes Fuller, 18, of Hancock
Street faces second-degree murder
and other charges for allegedly
triggering the July 26 shooting at
Bushwick Playground that led to the
death of Ridgewood’s Hamler Cabrera
DeJesus, 21, of Gates Avenue.
At about 6:30 p.m. on July 26, police
said, Cabrera-DeJesus and a group of
friends were sitting on a bench at the
playground, located at the corner of
Knickerbocker Avenue and Madison
Street, when the shots rang out.
According to a WPIX-TV report,
the bullets fl ew aft er the suspect and
a group of the victim’s friends got
into an argument. Law enforcement
sources familiar with the investigation
could not confi rm those details,
but noted that the victim and shooter
were not known to each other.
Police said that Cabrera-DeJesus
took a bullet to his back, while a
20-year-old man was shot in the
back and the left elbow, and another
20-year-old man suffered a graze
wound to his left forearm.
Officers from the 83rd Precinct
and EMS units rushed to the scene.
Paramedics rushed Cabrera-DeJesus
to Wyckoff Heights Medical Center,
where he was pronounced dead. The
other victims were treated for their
injuries at Brookdale University
Hospital.
Grimes Fuller has just one prior
arrest, according to police; the 83rd
Precinct picked him up in December
of 2017 on a litany of charges including
robbery and assault. Court records
noted that he was released on $10,000
bond on Jan. 8 of this year, and was
scheduled to return to court on Aug.
21 for another hearing related to
that case.
Now, Grimes Fuller is awaiting
arraignment on charges including
second-degree murder, criminal
possession of a weapon and reckless
endangerment in connection with the
playground shooting.
