Isaiah Alberto Colon was 17 when he was found injured near Moss and Spring streets in Reading, Pennsylvania in the early morning hours of Halloween 2017. City patrol officers discovered him about 2 a.m.; he was taken to Reading Hospital and pronounced dead of a gunshot wound to his upper body. Friends remembered him as quiet and fun-loving.

Investigators say Isaiah had been lured to an area near the drive-thru of a McDonald’s on the pretense of buying marijuana. A witness reported that an accomplice struck and then shot Isaiah while another man, 18-year-old Capreece Q. Sudler, stood by as they robbed him of a small amount of marijuana and fled. Johnathan Delacruz was implicated; his pistol discharged during an attempted pistol-whipping and the shot proved fatal. Sudler later testified against Delacruz, and a jury convicted Delacruz of second-degree murder, robbery, and criminal conspiracy, with a life sentence without parole for the murder conviction.

If anyone knew Isaiah, saw him that night, or has information about the people involved, please share what can help the case.
