"New York City continues to turn the tide against gun violence, and investigations that stop gun traffickers and get guns off our streets are critical to keeping people safe. My office is committed to putting a stop to gun trafficking operations that flood our communities with dangerous weapons."
"NYPD detectives, working in collaboration with the ATF, continue to do what they do best: identify the firearms, arrest the traffickers, and shut down dangerous operations that put our communities at risk. Thanks to our precision-policing strategies - which seized 32 guns and a cache of accessories in this case."
Khyle Williams, 31, faces 176 criminal charges for allegedly running an illegal gun trafficking operation in Flatbush, Brooklyn. Between May and October 2025, Williams conducted at least nine separate sales of semiautomatic pistols, revolvers, and high-capacity magazines. Authorities recovered 32 firearms, 12 high-capacity magazines, and 200 rounds of ammunition from the operation. Williams used encrypted messaging applications to negotiate prices and met customers in vehicles, typically selling firearms for $800 to $1,100. Some recovered weapons were reported stolen in Georgia. Charges include conspiracy, 94 counts of criminal sale of a firearm, 49 counts of criminal possession of a weapon, and 31 counts of criminal possession of a firearm.
