Christian Andrew Serrano, 22, of Wilmington, Delaware, was shot and killed on March 17, 2016, in the 200 block of North Connell Street. Police who responded shortly after 6:30 p.m. found Serrano with multiple gunshot wounds, including a fatal head wound; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Another man, Jerry DeLeon, was wounded in the arm and survived.

Court records trace the events to a dispute involving Jose Moreta, Joshua Gonzalez, and Serrano’s friend Hector Guzman. Serrano, DeLeon, and Alfredo Gonzalez went to check why Guzman had been targeted and encountered Moreta and Joshua Gonzalez near Franklin Street. After a confrontation, the three began walking away but realized they were being followed. Eight shots were fired as Serrano and DeLeon continued on North Connell Street; all eight rounds came from the same firearm. Surveillance and a witness placed Moreta and Gonzalez at the scene, and the gun was later recovered along Gonzalez’s path of flight. Trial evidence identified Joshua Gonzalez as the shooter and Moreta as the accomplice whose directions were the basis for his murder conviction.
