Two teenagers were shot and killed at a Getty Mart gas station in Reading, Pennsylvania, on the morning of February 20, 2022. José Ventura-Jiménez, an 18-year-old Hispanic/Latino male, and 17-year-old Alejandro Drullar were both fatally wounded after an interaction inside the store was followed by a burst of gunfire outside on the 200 block of West Greenwich Street.

Reading Police investigators say the suspect, NyJee Jefferson of Philadelphia, fled the scene and was driven to a Philadelphia hospital by a friend, where he gave a false name and a fabricated story about how he sustained a gunshot. Jefferson was identified through fingerprints and taken into custody the same day, initially on a parole-violation warrant; investigators noted he was on parole and not legally permitted to possess a gun. An arrest warrant for the homicides was issued, charging him with first-degree and third-degree murder and related offenses.

What information about that morning or the people involved might help clarify what happened at the Getty Mart?
