Briana Soto was just 17 years old when she was tragically taken away from her family. We will be working closely with our partners throughout the criminal justice system to ensure Briana and her family receive the justice they deserve.
The suspect, 34-year-old Troy Lamar Fox, was identified through DNA, video and cellphone evidence, and was already in custody for an unrelated weapons violation.
Soto had been walking home while talking to her mother on the phone when she was shot shortly after hanging up, just steps from her home.
Those who knew Soto described her as sweet and a hard worker, emphasizing the tragic loss felt by her community.
