Brian Guevara was 17 and from Lake Worth, Florida when he was shot during a fight at the Lantana Cascades Mobile Home Park on West Cat Cay Road on January 16, 2022. Authorities say the altercation involved several people, possibly armed with machetes, and that shots were fired. Guevara was struck in the lower back and his friends took him to JFK Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 10:34 p.m.

Investigators later determined the fatal shot was the result of friendly fire. Three people were charged in connection with the incident: 19-year-old Benjamin Coreas, 18-year-old Javier Benitez, and 17-year-old Oliver Campos. Charges reported included first-degree murder, robbery with a firearm, possession of a weapon by a delinquent, discharging a firearm from a vehicle, accessory after the fact, second-degree murder, and giving false information to law enforcement.

Brian’s mother described him as a good son who did not deserve to die in such a manner. Did anyone in the Lantana area see or hear anything that night that could help explain what happened?
