On March 20, 2015, 20-year-old Anthony Carvalho was shot to death in Fall River, Massachusetts, in the area of Whipple and Manton Streets; some reports place the shooting near Osborn and Ridge Streets. Investigators identified two teenage suspects at the time, Kevin Lara and Tavon Pires, and both were later charged in Carvalho’s killing.

The prosecution and pretrial work stretched over several years. By October 15, 2021, both Lara and Pires were sentenced to life in prison for their roles in the murder, closing a lengthy chapter that began with the 2015 slaying.

If anyone knew Anthony, his movements in March 2015, or observed activity around Whipple and Manton Streets (or Osborn and Ridge) that could shed light on the shooting, please come forward with information.
