Besides the victim, the home also contained 12 people, including four children, at the time of the shooting, ABC reported in a related article.

“We don’t know a motive. However, the intersection of Tackawanna and Fillmore streets is known for street-level narcotic sales. So in addition to having numerous witnesses that were inside the house, we have numerous cameras right outside,” Chief Inspector Scott Small said to ABC.
