Milton Allen, of Hempstead, is 3rd person charged in shooting death of NYC teacher

A third person has been charged in the April shooting of a New York City teacher in Hempstead killed while her 10-year-old daughter was sitting in the back of her car.

Milton Allen, 20, of Hempstead, was charged with second-degree murder on Monday in the  death of Kimberly Midgette, 44, who was shot in her car about 1:30 a.m. on April 1, Nassau County police said.

His arrest comes about one month after Oumar Barry, 27, of Hempstead, pleaded not guilty to a grand jury indictment on a second-degree murder charge.

Prosecutors said Midgette, a Bronx elementary school teacher, was dropping off her daughter at the girl’s home on Polk Avenue in Hempstead when a group of people pulled up in a stolen Honda.

Shots were fired at the house, killing Midgette and injuring another woman, also a teacher, riding in the front seat. Midgette's daughter, who was riding in the back seat, was not injured.

Police said Midgette was not the intended target in the shooting, which police believe was carried out in retaliation for a previous shooting.

Barry and a 16-year-old who was indicted on the same charges were arrested on Nov. 2, officials said.

He was arraigned on Tuesday in First District Court in Hempstead, pleaded not guilty and was held without bail, according to online court records. His attorney, Brian James Carmody of Garden City, declined to comment Tuesday afternoon because he'd not yet met with his client.
