Samuel R. Shadow Castillo Pedraza, 36, was shot in Reading, Pennsylvania, in the early hours of Monday, August 1, 2022. Police were called to Locust Street and Greenwich Street at about 12:35 a.m. after witnesses reported shots. Officers found him inside a parked vehicle with a gunshot wound; he was taken to Reading Hospital and died that same night from his injuries.

His obituary says he was born in El Coyolote, Michoacán, Mexico, the son of Daniel and Maria Pedraza Castillo, moved to the United States as a child, belonged to St. Peter the Apostle Church, graduated from Reading High School in 2005, and worked for Colebrooke Enterprises Ltd. manufacturing American flags. The family remembered him as generous and loving and honored his wishes to be a donor through Gift of Life, with his donation expected to help more than 25 families.

Shortly after the shooting, no arrests, suspect names, motives, or charges had been reported. Does anyone have information about Samuel or his death that could help investigators?
