On the afternoon of December 23, 2024, 17-year-old Anthony Rabadan was found with gunshot wounds in the front yard of a house near 51st Avenue and McDowell Road in Phoenix. Emergency responders took him to a nearby hospital, but he died of his injuries. Witnesses said two men dressed in all black were with Rabadan and appeared to be going through his pockets; one witness described one suspect straddling Rabadan while the other stood over him, then a loud pop and the suspects fleeing.

Family told investigators Rabadan had been selling vape cartridges. Investigators identified two 18-year-olds, Salvadora Montenegro and Adrian Summa, as persons of interest. Police recovered social media records and surveillance footage, and witnesses said the suspects were known from a juvenile corrections facility. Instagram posts allegedly linked Montenegro to a gun believed to be the murder weapon and included messages where Summa appeared to admit involvement.

On January 2, 2025, Montenegro and Summa were arrested and booked on charges including murder and armed robbery. Does anyone have information about the area near 51st Avenue and McDowell Road that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
