I hope they catch the killer on the loose. Someone out there knows something. A very sad event when you see young people especially loosing their life to gun violence. Prayers for his family and loved ones.
This is unfortunately going to open up old wounds again 🙁
Erick was my brother and cousins best friends and its so frustrating that SOMEONE KNOWS SOMETHING and nothing is being done

If there was a big reward, people will start talking.
Seems to me more than one individual was involved. And yeah they definitely know that.(themselves).
There was another group of creeps that Killed a young man named Arthur a few years back. I don’t want to know what became of them.
