The independent movie “Equal Standard,” which was released in May, was filmed in Queens, New York with a cast that also included stars such as rapper Treach from Naughty By Nature, singer Syleena Johnson and Tobias Truvillion, according to IMDb.
The movie is about the killing of a white NYPD cop by a black detective after the cop refused to believe the detective was a fellow law enforcement officer, according to Variety.

Video Footage
Police have released video footage in hopes of identifying a suspect.
Footage shows the suspect, wearing black track pants, a white sweatshirt and a hat and mask, pacing around the entrance to a garage in Long Island City, Queens while talking on the phone Thursday night.
The man then leaves the garage and walks across the street to a brand new Mercedes, parked on Jackson Avenue, near Queens Boulevard, and opened fire on Bryan, who was sitting in the driver’s seat.
After the shooting, the gunman hopped into a dark SUV around the corner on Queens Boulevard, and fled the area with a getaway driver, cops said.
