On the afternoon of November 7, 2022, 26-year-old Jonathan Naranjo of Brooklyn was found dead inside a vehicle following a motor vehicle crash in Rutland, Vermont. Emergency calls first reported the crash near State Street and Cleveland Avenue; a follow-up report indicated a shooting at the same location. An autopsy determined Naranjo died of gunshot wounds to his torso and an upper extremity, and his death was ruled a homicide.

Vermont State Police and Rutland City Police investigators determined Naranjo had been specifically targeted rather than the victim of a random act. The Major Crime Unit, Bureau of Criminal Investigations, and Crime Scene Search Team conducted an active investigation over the following months.

In March 2023 investigators identified 18-year-old Trayvon Kisling of Staten Island as the primary suspect and obtained an arrest warrant. On March 15, 2023, Kisling was located at a Brandon gas station and taken into custody; he was transported to the Rutland barracks on charges including first-degree murder, first-degree aggravated domestic assault, and obstruction of justice.

If anyone knew Jonathan, his movements in Rutland on November 7, 2022, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
