On November 21, 2022, just before 8 PM, officers responded to Atkinson St and Reynolds St for the report of shots fired and a person down in the street. Officers located 12-year-old old Juan Lopez dead in front of 218 Atkinson St. with multiple gunshot wounds. A 16-year-old was also shot and survived his injuries. Investigators developed a potential suspect, who has since been arrested for murder in the state of Pennsylvania.
