Leonardo Tavares was 20 when he was fatally shot inside his Nissan Rogue on Randall Street in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, on the afternoon of May 15, 2021. Pawtucket police say they responded to reports of gunfire about 1:45 p.m. and found Tavares in his car with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to Rhode Island Hospital and pronounced dead.

Investigators treated the shooting as targeted and identified two suspects. Police say Jahcolin Rodrigues, 20, of Providence, was driving a Subaru Impreza, circled the block after spotting Tavares, then fired multiple shots into the vehicle. Todd Alicea, 30, of Pawtucket, was also arrested and charged in connection with the drive-by. Both faced charges including first-degree murder and conspiracy.

Does anyone who knew Leonardo or was in the Randall Street area that afternoon have information that could help clarify what happened?
