From the Daily News byJohn Lauinger:

Cops released a mug shot Wednesday of the suspected triggerman in a fatal shooting after a brawl on a party yacht near South Street Seaport over the weekend.

Londell Squire, 31, was identified by witnesses as the gunman who hunted down Omar Trent, 31, of Brooklyn, in a Seaport parking lot and shot him in the head early Saturday, police said.

The shooting marked a tragic ending to an alcohol-fueled melee at a birthday bash aboard the Atlantica, a multimillion-dollar yacht.

Squire is described as 5-feet-6, 140 pounds, with short black hair and hazel eyes. He has previous arrests for robbery, assault and marijuana possession, police said. His current address is unknown. Cops ask anyone with information about the shooting to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS or log on to www.nypdcrimestoppers.com.
