2 Arrested in 2011 Hartford Murder

Two Hartford residents have been charged with murder in the shooting death of a 24-year-old Windsor Man in 2011.

Jimel Frank, 27, and Karyl Roye, 24, were arrested on federal charges Thursday. They're accused of shooting and killing Anthony Parker, 24, of Windsor, while he was sitting in car parked on Thomaston Street in Hartford in April 2011.

Parker was found alive but pronounced dead at Saint Francis Hospital, according to police.

Frank and Roy were each charged with engaging in – and conspiring to engage in – a violent crime in the aid of racketeering in connection with Parker's murder, federal prosecutors said.

They could each face life in prison if convicted.

The arrest stems from a joint investigation into drug trafficking and violence on the part of the WestHell and Team Grease gangs, according to the U.S. attorney's office.
