Jesus Santiago, 51, was found shot multiple times and died of gunshot wounds in the basement of a home on the 400 block of Cliff Street in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The shooting occurred about 3:00 AM on July 14, 2021. Cambria County Coroner Jeff Lees ruled the death a homicide.

Santiago, originally from Brooklyn and living in Dale for about three to four months before his death, was a father to seven children: Donavan, Yachira, Joselyn, Raymond, Adriana, Christian, and Jesus Santiago. Multiple people were in the house at the time, though it is unclear whether they were related to him. The Johnstown Police Department obtained a search warrant for the home and launched a homicide investigation. District Attorney Greg Neugbauer said the incident did not appear to be random and that there was no immediate danger to the public.

No suspects have been identified and no arrests have been announced; the investigation remains ongoing. If anyone has information that could help investigators, please contact the Johnstown Police Department.
