Mark Anthony Arbelo Jr., known as Marky, was 24 and a Crescent City resident when he was killed on July 13, 2021, during a shooting at an apartment complex on Gunby Court. He died at the scene; his brothers Alexander and Angel Arbelo were also shot—Alexander critically with a gunshot to the stomach and placed in the ICU, Angel with a leg wound in stable condition. The shooting followed an altercation between the Arbelo brothers and Francisco Arroyo, and investigators say there was an exchange of gunfire.

Arroyo, who has a prior record including robbery and an attempted murder charge, was apprehended in Missouri while allegedly trying to flee to Mexico. He was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and additional charges related to the shooting were anticipated. Marky worked with his brothers at the family business, M.A. Rims and Tires, and left behind a one-year-old daughter and a second child due later. The community organized fundraising to help with funeral and medical costs.

Does anyone have information about the shooting or knew the Arbelo family that could help with this case?
