This incident has been described as a "senseless killing" by Kwakye Ofosu. The Ghanaian government has also assured the family of the teenager, Thomas Frimpong, of its full support in their pursuit of justice.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Permanent Mission in New York have visited the Frimpong family to offer condolences and support.

The victim, Javits Frimpong, was shot in the abdomen while walking near a school in the Bronx on October 29.
