On the evening of May 30, 2023, a shooting at a residence in the 400 block of North 5th Street in Lebanon, Pennsylvania, killed 19-year-old Joshua Lugo-Perez and two boys, 8-year-old Jesus Perez-Salome and 9-year-old Sebastian Perez-Salome. All three lived at the house. Lugo-Perez was reportedly the intended target; the two younger boys were playing with kittens in the backyard and were described as unintended victims.

Authorities arrested three people in connection with the incident. Alex Torres-Santos, 22, was arrested on May 31, 2023; he was on house arrest at the time of the shooting and was wearing an ankle monitor, and police recovered ammunition and multiple firearms at his residence. A 16-year-old male, identified as James Fernandez-Reyes, was arrested and charged as an adult. Ivan Claudio-Rosero, 27, was arrested on June 6, 2023, in Philadelphia and admitted to driving to and from the scene and firing multiple rounds. A woman, 34-year-old Tiffany Koziara, was charged with hindering apprehension for giving investigators false information about Claudio-Rosero’s whereabouts.

The Lebanon County District Attorney announced intentions to seek the death penalty against Torres-Santos and Claudio-Rosero. The community has held memorials and vigils for the three victims. Does anyone have information about the victims, the neighborhood, or what happened that night?
