Seventeen-year-old Yadiel Flecha was fatally shot on the night of Friday, August 22, 2025, in Cleveland’s Central neighborhood. Police were called about 9:36 p.m. to the 4200 block of Bohn Road, where officers found him inside an apartment with a gunshot wound. Investigators said preliminary information indicated he had been shot outside the building and then brought inside by others before Cleveland EMS transported him to a hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

Authorities publicly identified the victim as Yadiel Flecha of Cleveland; an online obituary gave his full name as Yadiel Lian Flecha and confirmed his age and date of passing. Homicide detectives were canvassing for information in the days after the shooting, and as of those reports no arrests, suspect description, or motive had been announced. Family and friends gathered the following week for services, with interment at Riverside Cemetery.
