BROOKLYN — A Brooklyn man who had been arrested after the execution-style killing of his correction officer ex-girlfriend was formally charged with murder, the NYPD said Thursday.
Keon Richmond, 34, was busted on Dec. 14 after rookie officer Alastasia Bryan, 25, was found fatally shot at point blank range inside her Infiniti near her home on East 73rd Street and Avenue L earlier that month.
He was initially charged with arson after another ex-girlfriend’s car was torched in East New York last October.
The U.S. Marshals Regional Task Force found Richmond hiding in a closet in a Flatbush home on East 58th Street.
He was charged with felony arson and held without bail in that case.
Richmond, who has a history of threatening girlfriends, has now been additionally charged with second-degree murder, criminal possession of a weapon and criminal use of a firearm after being indicted by a grand jury, according to police and sources.
He is expected to be arraigned on the charges in Brooklyn Supreme Court Friday.
