Police identified the man shot and killed on Leo Street in the northeast Rochester on Wednesday.

Luis Garcia-Pizzaro, 35, of Rochester died after being shot multiple times in his upper body, police said Thursday.

He was located by police shortly after noon in front of 15 Leo St. near the intersection with Remington Street in northeast Rochester. He had been shot multiple times in the upper body, police said.

Rochester Police Capt. Korey Brown said the man was transported by ambulance to Strong Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

A K-9 team was deployed to the site to track possible suspects, but no one had been taken into custody. "We're still working on it, trying to locate witnesses," Brown said.

The site where the man was found is just down the street from a now-closed city elementary school. The building formerly housed School 22.

The man's slaying is the fifth homicide reported in Rochester this year.
