A New York City man wanted for fatally shooting a Brooklyn teen is finally facing charges nearly five years after he fled to the Caribbean.

Anthony Regis-Ash, 24, was indicted for second-degree murder in Brooklyn’s Supreme Court Monday, two weeks after he was extradited from Trinidad and Tobago.

Regis-Ash — who used to live in Brooklyn — is accused of gunning down 18-year-old Sharif Richards during a robbery attempt on a Canarsie road in September 2021.

“The brutal ambush and murder [was] a heinous act of violence that shattered a young life and devastated a family,” said Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez, whose office brought the charges.

“By extraditing the alleged perpetrator from Trinidad and Tobago, we reaffirm our unwavering commitment to ensuring that this kind of callous disregard for human life is met with the full force of justice,” he added in a statement.

Regis-Ash was named as a suspect just over a year after the teen’s body was found with a gunshot wound to the chest and lying next to his wrecked car.

He was identified through security footage from the night of Richards’ murder, which captured Regis-Ash’s girlfriend Amari Harvey, 24, waking up to the vehicle and climbing in.

Regis-Ash then approached the car wearing a mask and hoodie, and leaned into the window allegedly in a robbery attempt.

The suspect then allegedly shot Richards in the chest, and the teen drove off and crashed several blocks away, before Harvey slipped out of the car and left the scene with Regis-Ash.

A warrant was put out for Regis-Ash’s arrest in October of the next year, but months earlier in June 2021 he had travelled to and remained in Trinidad and Tobago, according to the US Embassy in the country.

His girlfriend was arrested at JFK Airport in January 2022 before she could board a flight to the island.

Regis-Ash was extradited on Dec. 22 and brought back to the US by the Marshals Service.

In addition to murder, he faces charges of attempted robbery, and criminal possession of a weapon.

He faces 25 years to life in prison, and is being held without bail.

Harvey was also charged with murder, attempted robbery, and criminal possession of a weapon, and is being held on $1 million bail.

The post NYC man suspected of teen’s 2021 murder indicted after extradition from Trinidad and Tobago appeared first on New York Post.
