She also claims police didn’t arrive on scene until after they had gotten to the hospital. And because of this shooting, Chana says her family is looking to live elsewhere.Police are still looking for the shooter according to the Mercado family.
“This will not be another unsolved homicide. I hear about them all the time. And no matter what, until my last breath I will fight for him,” Mercado said.©2023 Cox Media Group
