The Lafayette High School graduates was pronounced dead at the scene, which is just close to his mother’s house. Pietro also identified as Retro was located by his mum and girlfriend at the front area of the mother’s apartment suffering from fatal gunshot wounds.
“30 minutes to an hour after it happened, I received a phone call. Because his girlfriend, and I guess his mother, were two of the people who discovered him outside of his mom’s house. His girlfriend was just hysterical, so she called her bestfriend and her bestfriend is my sister,” When she said Retro just got killed in front of his mother’s house, it was just so shocking to me. I couldn’t believe that was what she said. I even asked her, you’ve got to be kidding me. You’re lying. There’s just no way, “It really did hit me like a train. He was so nice and so unproblematic. I never thought it would be him out of everybody. I thought she would have said somebody else.” Retros friend Raven Brown said.
The case is being investigated as a homicide.
