Police say a York man was killed because he had a similar nickname as the attackers’ intended target.
York police say 29-year-old Omar Maru Dowling, also known as “Big O,” was killed April 11. At least 18 shots were fired in the attack.
Two 29-year-old York men were charged Tuesday with conspiracy and criminal homicide. Police Lt. Ron Camacho says Wilfredo Rodriguez and Dennis Mercado were trying to get revenge for a botched August drug deal in which Rodriguez was shot. But Camacho says the man they were looking for wasn’t Dowling, but someone with a similar nickname.
Rodriguez and Mercado are held without bail; it was not immediately clear if they had lawyers. - cd (http://www.centredaily.com/news/state/story/558955.html)
