On the night of April 13, 2022, a drug transaction turned deadly in the 500 block of West Market Street in York, Pennsylvania. Thirty-year-old Miguel M. Roman was shot during an arranged purchase of marijuana and was taken to UPMC Memorial Hospital, where he died in the early hours of April 14. Twenty-seven-year-old Jordan Simpson was found dead at the scene.

Investigators say the meeting had been arranged with a man identified as James Brown Jr., who, together with Kyree Dickson and Simpson, ambushed Roman intending to commit a robbery. A shootout followed; Roman and Simpson were fatally wounded while Brown and Dickson were injured. Brown and Dickson were later arrested and charged with second-degree murder, robbery, and conspiracy.

The double homicide left two families grieving and a York neighborhood shaken. If anyone has information about the events that evening or knew either victim or the people involved, please share what you know with investigators.
