Tarpinian-Jachym, a University of Massachusetts Amherst student from Granby, Massachusetts, was shot that evening and later died at the hospital. Police say multiple suspects exited a vehicle and opened fire on a group of people. A woman and a 16-year-old boy were also shot but survived. Investigators believe Tarpinian-Jachym was not the intended target.
Just five days after Tarpinian-Jachym’s murder, Lucas is suspected of killing Zoey Kelley-Hickman, a teenage girl, on Benning Road Northeast.Â
