Ivan Torres was 15 when he was shot on October 10, 2020, on the 4000 block of Serafica Drive in Lake Worth, Florida, near John Prince Park and south of Palm Beach State College’s main campus. Palm Beach County deputies found him with gunshot wounds to the torso; he was taken to a hospital and died later that night.
A grand jury later indicted three teenagers as adults in connection with the shooting: Jose Mauricio Pineda Acatitlan, 17, Louis Antonio Caudillo, 18, and Kevin Nieves-Martinez, 18, charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder. Court records say the indictment also alleges an attempt on a second person, but the motive and details about that person were not disclosed.
In August 2023 Kevin Nieves-Martinez pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact in Torres’s killing, with prosecutors dropping the first-degree murder charge against him; he agreed to testify against the other defendants. Does anyone have information about what happened that night or knew Ivan?
