Viktoriya Manasyan was 20 when she was fatally shot on April 21, 2018, at a house party near Temple University in North Philadelphia. A Ukrainian immigrant who came to the United States at age five, she had recently completed basic training with the U.S. Army Reserves and had plans to join the FBI. She was described as a beloved member of her community.

Police allege 19-year-old Sydear Green was kicked out of the party, returned armed and opened fire. Reports say Green initially targeted one person, then continued shooting, killing Viktoriya and 21-year-old Rashawn Miller and wounding two others. Green was arrested and charged with two counts of murder.

Viktoriya’s family and friends remember her bright spirit and dedication to her future. If anyone was at that party or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
