Police have released surveillance footage of the suspect they believe gunned down a 43-year-old Long Island father outside his home earlier this year.
Nassau County police have released images showing the man suspected of killing Oscar Granados outside his home in Mineola on Jan. 11. The video shows the man walking through a driveway around the time of the killing.
Granados had just returned home and was standing outside his front door when he was approached by the gunman, who fatally shot the 43-year-old after a brief struggle.
Police say that Granados was found lying on the ground outside the home when officers arrived and that he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Granados had emigrated from El Salvador and worked as a painter seven days a week to support his 2 children, his family said. A small memorial had been set up outside the home Monday morning.
Granados' family said they think robbery may have been the motive for the shooting. Police say the Granados had his cellphone, wallet and cash but that they aren't ruling out robbery as a motive.
Police said that Granados appears to have been targeted by the man who killed him.
