In the early morning hours of June 30, 2018, two young men were killed in Brighton when gunfire broke out on Faneuil Street. Jeffrey Montaque, 27, of Cambridge and 26-year-old Wilfred Peters of Brighton were found with multiple gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities described the shooting as a targeted attack.

Prosecutors say a suspect, 20-year-old Nicholas Antoine of the South End, had been asked to leave a small gathering at Peters’ home that night, returned to his vehicle to retrieve a firearm, then came back and opened fire. Ballistics evidence indicated only one firearm was used. A warrant for two counts of murder and multiple firearm charges was issued after Antoine was identified as the primary suspect.

Antoine fled the Boston area and was located and arrested in Hampton, Georgia, in December 2018. Anyone with information about Montaque, the events that night, or the people present at the gathering is asked to come forward.
