Scott, 23, was charged with first-degree murder, second-degree murder, criminal possession of a weapon, and reckless endangerment for allegedly shooting 47-year-old Darius Guillebeaux following a June 7 argument.

Scott was charged alongside 22-year-old Richard Swygert, who is also facing a murder charge.

Guillebeaux was found with multiple gunshot wounds to his head and chest on June 7, 2021 just before 1pm.

The NYPD says he was then taken to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

An arraignment is expected to occur in Queens County court on Wednesday.
