RPD is still working to determine the motive of the murder and there are no suspects in custody. Police say the shooting was targeted.

News10NBC went back to the scene on Thursday morning to speak with people who live and work in the area. Endeni Montes says he goes to Hollenbeck Street often and his brother’s auto shop is nearby.

“The neighborhood is getting bad with the guys walking around the alley and the dope fiends and all that. But I want to be safe here. Something’s got to be done. All the crime Clinton Avenue, we don’t need that around here,” Montes said.
