Kasper Martin was 17 and a senior in the Greater Johnstown School District when he was shot and killed on November 9, 2016, in the Hornerstown section of Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Police say gunfire was reported around 9 p.m. on Pine Street; witnesses described a chaotic confrontation involving multiple people and two vehicles. Martin and five friends had gone to the 800 block of Pine Street, and investigators say a fight between Martin and Reginald Harris Jr. was followed within about 10 seconds by shots being fired. Martin was taken first to Richland, then transferred to Windber Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead from a gunshot wound to the abdomen or stomach.

Johnstown police identified 25-year-old Reginald Harris Jr. as the suspect and charged him with homicide and multiple related offenses; an arrest warrant was issued and he was captured the following night. No other arrests or convictions have been reported in connection with Martin’s death.
