Alexander Martuscello was 23 when he was killed in the early hours of March 9, 2017, at an apartment on Glen Avenue in Amsterdam, New York. He died after a 12-gauge shotgun was fired through a glass door; he had lived in the unit for only a month or two and was not believed to be the intended target. The shooting grew out of a dispute aimed at one of Martuscello’s roommates, described by authorities as an ongoing beef, and the suspects had gone to the residence intending to commit a robbery.

Within a day police arrested three local teenagers: 19-year-old Christopher Malave Jr., 18-year-old Raymond Matros, and 16-year-old Anthony Matros. Investigators recovered the shotgun hidden in a neighbor’s pile of lumber with the help of a State Police dog. The 16-year-old accepted a plea to first-degree manslaughter and was sentenced to ten years in prison followed by five years of post-release supervision; his appeal of that sentence was denied.

Does anyone have information about the night of March 9, 2017, or remember seeing activity on Glen Avenue that could help clarify what happened?
