Guyanese NYC Man Involved in Driveway Fight That Led to 10-year-old’s Death

One of the men involved in the Queens driveway dispute that led to the fatal shooting of 10-year-old Justin Wallace has been busted with a half-dozen firearms, cops said Friday.

Police executed a search warrant at Ashram Lochan’s home on Beach 45th Street in Far Rockaway, Lochan a man of Guyanese descent — at the house next to where little Justin was fatally shot — and found the illicit cache Thursday night, authorities said.

Lochan had allegedly been arguing with Justin’s older nephew over the families’ shared driveway Saturday evening before another man fired into the Wallace relatives’ home, killing the fifth-grader with a single shot. Suspected shooter Jovan Young is currently being held without bail in Justin’s death.

Lochan was charged for criminal possession of one 9mm handgun, one .380 handgun, one .410 revolver, and two flare guns, Chief Rodney Harrison said in a tweet on Friday.

“Excellent job by the 101 Precinct Detective Squad for successfully conducting a search warrant which led to the arrest of Astram Locham,” Harrison tweeted, misspelling his name.

“This is a great example of the hard work and dedication of #NYPD officers. We are constantly working to bring justice to the families of crime victims,” the cop added.

Queens Assistant District Attorney Joseph Grasso said during an arraignment late Friday that while in the precinct, Lochan had spontaneously told cops that he had “something within his stereo in his basement that was going to result in his arrest.”

Queens Assistant District Attorney Joseph Grasso said during an arraignment late Friday that while in the precinct, Lochan had spontaneously told cops that he had “something within his stereo in his basement that was going to result in his arrest.”

“This defendant had the knowledge of the whereabouts of the firearms in the basement,” Grasso said.

In the aftermath of the shooting, Lochan and his wife Elizabeth Lochan — who was also arrested — allegedly fled their home after being questioned by police and relocated to a hotel on Long Island, according to the prosecutor.

Grasso asked that Ashram be ordered held in custody and that bail for Elizabeth be set at $75,000, arguing that both defendants posed a flight risk.

Police found just under $20,000 cash in the center console of the couple’s car, and Ashram’s mother “spoke of going back to Guyana while in the presence of police,” Grasso said.

“Both of these defendants… pose a great risk of flight,” he said.

Ashram’s defense attorney Edwin Schulman asked for “reasonable bail” to be set for his client. But Judge Frances Wang ruled that he posed “a great flight risk” based on the circumstances and remanded him into custody.
