Brandon Spears was 19 when he was fatally wounded on June 12, 2016, inside the Radisson Hotel in downtown Rochester. The shooting happened in a 10th-floor hallway after a dispute between two guests escalated and a firearm was introduced. A bullet did not strike Spears directly; it ricocheted off the hallway floor and struck him in the upper body. He was taken to the hospital but died of his injuries.

In December 2016, authorities arrested 23-year-old Luis Arroyo with help from the U.S. Marshals. Arroyo was charged with manslaughter and criminal possession of a weapon and pleaded not guilty at arraignment.

Did anyone witness the hallway dispute or the moments before the shot was fired?
