On Easter Sunday, March 31, 2024, three members of a family in the Duclay neighborhood of Jacksonville, Florida, died in a shooting that began after an argument over the use of a racial slur. According to the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, a 22-year-old son put on tactical gear, took a rifle upstairs and shot his 45-year-old father, Yaniv Grinberg, and his 12-year-old brother, Israel Grinberg, before turning the gun on himself. The mother was also shot, escaped the house and was taken to hospital in critical condition; two other children in the home were unharmed.

Neighbors described chaotic scenes with the mother calling for help and children screaming. Records show the Sheriff’s Office had been called to the home more than a dozen times since 2019, including four domestic-related calls. Family members said the 22-year-old had mental health issues, though the Sheriff’s Office said it had no prior awareness of those issues. If anyone knew Israel or was in the Duclay neighborhood that day, can you share what you remember?
